Favorite Beer Chili

• 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 whole Red Onion, Chopped
• 1 whole Red Pepper, Chopped
• 3/4 cups Chopped Carrot
• 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
• 1 pound Sirloin Steak, Diced
• 1 pound Pork Sausage
• 3 Tablespoons Masa (corn Flour)
• 2 Tablespoons Ancho Chile Powder
• 1-1/2 Tablespoon Cumin
• 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano
• 1-1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
• 56 ounces, weight Crushed Tomatoes
• 28 ounces, weight Canned Kidney Beans, Drained
• 9 ounces, fluid Your Favorite Beer
• 1/2 teaspoons Cayenne (optional)

1. Heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, peppers, carrots and garlic and saute for 5 minutes.
2. Next add the ground beef and sausage and cook until brown-8-10 minutes-breaking up all the meat clumps.
3. Add the masa, chile powder, cumin and oregano, cook another 3 minutes stirring regularly. Add the salt, sugar, tomatoes, beans, beer and scrape the bottom to deglaze.
4. Reduce and cook at least another 30 minutes-partially covered-until flavors are well combined and the chili has thickened. Stir occasionally.
5. Add a couple dashes of cayenne pepper for extra heat. Serve with your favorite toppings and tortilla chips or cornbread!
