  • Main Ingredients

    • 2 pounds lean ground beef
    • 🧅 1 onion, diced
    • 2 (12 ounce) cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed well
    • 💧 2 cups water
    • 🍅 1 cup tomato puree
    • ⅔ cup diced poblano pepper

  • Spices & Seasonings

    • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons salt
    • 3 tablespoons ground ancho chile powder
    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    • 1 teaspoon paprika

STEPS

1

Heat a large pot over high heat; drizzle in vegetable oil. Cook ground beef, onion, and salt until the beef browns and liquid evaporates, about 4 minutes. Reduce to medium-high heat and add chile powder, garlic, cumin, paprika, black pepper, and cinnamon. Stir until spices darken, about 3 to 4 minutes.

2

Pour in beer, then add water, tomato puree, cocoa powder, oregano, and cayenne. Stir the mixture thoroughly, bring to a simmer, and reduce heat to medium-low. Allow to cook for 30 minutes.

3

Add the pinto beans and poblano pepper, stirring well. Simmer for an additional 30 minutes until peppers are tender and flavors meld. Add water if the chili becomes too thick.
