This recipe make a MOTHERLOAD of chili, so if you don't want a motherload of chili half it...or do what I do and freeze about half of it.

This is my favorite recipe for chili. I found somewhat of a basic chili recipe that I have changed a bit every time I make it and this is what I have found to be my favorite. However, usually during the summer I delete the chocolate and add in some corn.

==Chili Ingredients==
*3 lbs ground beef (Get as lean as availible, I used my local butchers special grind that is 96% lean)
*3 Onions, coarsly chopped
*1 Head of garlic, should be about 12 cloves
*2 28oz cans of Diced Tomatos (you can use whole or crushed depending on the texture you like, but leave the juice in)
*2 15oz cans of black beans, drained
*2 15oz cans of kidney beans, drained
*1 can chipolte peppers, sliced, with the adobo sauce from can
*1 12oz bottle of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale (I bought a 24 oz bottle knowing full well that I only needed 50% of it, the other half was consumed during this very preperation!)
*1 can of beef broth
*5 Tbsp oregano
*1/4 cup chili powder
*1 Tbsp Black Pepper
*1/2 Tbsp salt
*1 Tbsp Cumin
*1 Tbsp Liquid Smoke (entirely optional, the odobo sauce is already sort of smokey, so if you don't love a lot of smokey flavor, don't add this.)
*2.5 oz Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate (I bought this because it was on sale, you can use any dark chocolate, but I wouldn't recommend using some expensive stuff since all of the complexity would be lost in the chili.)

==Chili Method==

To begin peel you onions and garlic and pour the beer into a big ol pot and get it warming up.

[[image:tonedefchili02.jpg]]

Now chop the onions and garlic and get a pan warmed with just a bit of olive oil in the bottom.

[[image:tonedefchili03.jpg]]

Toss the onion/garlic mixture into that pan and saute it. Don't be a fool and put this on high heat and burn them. Use a medium heat and only keep them on long enough to turn them translucent, this should take about 10 minuets.

[[image:tonedefchili04.jpg]]

Meanwhile you should melt your chocolate in the now warmed beer, make sure you continue to stir so it doesn't melt onto the bottom of that pan.

[[image:tonedefchili05.jpg]]

Once the chocolate is melted toss in all of your canned goods and spices, stir that around and dump in your onions/garlic as soon as it is ready.

[[image:tonedefchili06.jpg]]

Now brown your beef in the same pan that you did your onions, I used worcestershire on my beef because it rules. Then dump that in and bring it all to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for at least a half hour. You may want to taste this after it simmers a bit and add more peppers if you want it hotter.

While that gets delicious we can make the cornbread. Preheat to 350.
==Cornbread Ingredients==
*1 cup milk
*1 cup flour
*1 tsp baking soda
*2 tsp baking powder
*1 egg
*1/4 cup honey
*1 tsp salt
*2 Tbsp oil
*1 cup yellow cornmeal

[[image:tonedefchili08.jpg]]

==Cornbread Method==

Mix you dry ingerients, then wisk you wet ingredients in a seperate bowl. Mix the two together and pour into a greased pan or muffin pan. Bake for about 30 min.

[[image:tonedefchili09.jpg]]

About now is where I stick half of it in the freezer and the other half in a crock pot to sit for about 10 hours. Chili is always better the next day.
