Ingredients

Serves: 12

2 pounds sirloin tips, chopped into small cubes
1 (29-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (29-ounce) can kidney beans (with liquid)
1 (29-ounce) can pinto beans (with liquid)
1 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced green chili (2 chilies)
1/4 cup diced celery (1 stalk)
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
2 teaspoons cumin powder
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons salt
14 ounces Jim Beam(R) bourbon

Preparation method

Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 3 hours

Brown the meat in a skillet over medium heat. Using a fork, crumble the cooked beef into pea-size pieces.

In a large soup pot, combine the beef plus all the remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook, stirring every 15 minutes, for 2 to 3 hours.

Tidbits

For spicier chili, add 1/2 teaspoon more black pepper. For much spicier chili, add 1 teaspoon black pepper and a tablespoon cayenne pepper. And for a real stomach stinger, add 5 or 6 sliced jalapeno peppers to the pot.
