This rich chili uses black beans, guinness beer and chipotle peppers to make a hearty, eat-your-heart-out chili. This recipe is perfect for to feed a crowd or freeze for quick dinners later.
Heat oil in a big sauce pan or a Dutch oven over medium heat; add onion. Reduce heat to low, and cook the onion for 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add bell pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Add chipotle peppers and garlic, cook for one minute. Add beef and the next 5 ingredients (chili powder, sea salt, cumin, ground pepper, basil). Stir in beer and simmer for about 2 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and the next 4 ingredients (tomatoes, tomato paste, broth, bay leaf). Bring to a low boil and reduce heat to medium to medium low. Simmer, uncovered, for 30-40 minutes. Add beans, stir, and continue to simmer until liquid has reduced slightly and the chili has become thicker. (After adding beans, I usually simmer for another 30-45 minutes.)
Serve with Fritos, sour cream and lots of hot sauce!
You will have seconds. It’s that addicting!

Another hit at my house. The general flavor was excellent but a little on the spicy side for us. Next time I think I will reduce the number of chipolte peppers to 3.

I made this for dinner tonight, and it was a hit with my husband. I substituted bison for the beef, and the result was excellent. It is super spicy – so be warned, but the smokey chipotle and the dark brew give some rich flavors to this dish!
