JAPANESE CHILI

Steps:

• 1. In Dutch oven or soup pot, fry the chopped bacon until crisp. Remove bacon from pot and drain on paper towels and set aside. In this same pot brown ground beef and onions, drain off excess fat. Add tomato soup, mushrooms, beans, and seasonings and mix well. Add beer and bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 3 hours. Stir occasionally.
• 2. The original recipe says to serve over hot rice and top with Parmesan cheese, but we like it better with oyster crackers or corn chips and topped with shredded cheddar cheese.

ASIAN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and sauté the onion, shallot, garlic and Serrano pepper until onion is tender.
• Add the Chinese 5 spice and mix around until combined completely.
• Pour in veggie stock and stir.
• Let that simmer, and then stir in the hoisin sauce, sesame oil, chili oil, and soy sauce. You don't have to be exact with measurement because all of these flavors are pretty acquired, so do what you like.
• Once all of that is mixed you can mix in the drained beans.
• You can go ahead and serve it now, but I have also transferred this to a slow cooker and cooked from 1-12 hours, the longer you cook it the softer the beans with get.
• Serve with the crunchy chow mein noodles and chopped green onion.
