MOM'S PERFECT CHILI

Mom's Perfect Chili image

Smoky tomato flavors lead the way in this comforting classic. This is the perfect chili recipe in my opinion--it's not so fancy that it's intimidating at all, but it's definitely a step above chili packet recipes and chili beans. Serve topped with desired garnishes, such as jalapeno, green or white white onion, cheese, sour cream, cilantro, and hot sauce.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
2 pounds ground beef sirloin
1 large onion, diced
2 medium poblano peppers, diced
1 medium orange bell pepper, diced
1 medium jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup chili powder
4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
½ (28 ounce) can tomato puree
2 cups beef stock
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced
1 tablespoon adobo sauce from chipotle peppers
3 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed

Steps:

Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, crumbling with a spoon until evenly browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Add remaining oil to the pot and return to medium-high heat. Add onion and saute, stirring often, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add poblano, bell, and jalapeno peppers and garlic; cook, stirring frequently until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in chili powder, cumin, paprika, sugar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, and oregano; cook for 1 minute. Add beer and stir, scraping any small brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add crushed and fire-roasted tomatoes, tomato puree, beef stock, chipotle pepper, and adobo sauce; stir until well combined. Bring to a simmer, stirring often.
Stir in beef and kidney beans; return to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for at least 3 hours.

Mom's homemade chili recipe was the best! She knew just the right ingredients to put her 'stamp' on it. I could eat it with my eyes closed and know it was hers. It amazed me that she could put it together in so little time. -Marjorie Carey, Alamosa, Colorado
