Unlike 99% of Americans, Chili Con Carne was completely unknown to me as a small boy in England until a couple of American kids joined our English school in 1973. When we stayed over at their place one weekend, their Mom made this wonderful new dish for all of us that I had never heard of before. I have zero recollection of whether it was spicy or not, but I figure it must have been. Even now, almost exactly 50 years later, I can still remember peering in the pot and looking at something that was just like that at 5:14, and asking her what it was. I can even remember that first smell - I wonder how she managed to find the ingredients in 1970s England. If Hal and Scot’s mom is still alive, she must be well into her 80s by now. I would like to thank her for that introduction to Chili Con Carne. Obviously, as a Brit, I entirely approve of the use of IPA, one of England's gifts to the World (that Americans appear to have refined and improved - grrrr)

I've been making my chili con carne with beer for years, it started one day when I had forgot to make the stock . . . had a can of beer in my hand . . . and thought "I wonder what if . . ." . . . mostly bitter ale, more recently pale ale, a couple of times dark ale (not stout, that's too dense), always turns out great, and always with that 'mysterious' flavour. Love it that you've discovered 'my' secret ingredient! ;-)

Wow great recipe. At my house Chile was always spread on bread. Store bought was always germet, but it was great with home made bread. Her bread was always so good.

I've been making beef&bean chili for decades. This one looks good! I put in a lotta chopped stuff: bell peppers in several colours, onions, garlic, celery (if I have it), other vegs ad hoc, I'm gonna add an IPA to my next batch. (My favourite beer BTW.)

[@scotto9591]

This looks awesome. When I make chili at home, I usually use a Corona or two. You can taste it in the background I also freeze sweet corn when it's in season. And throw a cup or so into the chili. Along with a small can of tomato paste. I like the acid it. I never knew about the cinnamon, I have to try that. A local place puts in a little brown sugar and you can taste that sweetness and every bite. It's kind of nice 🤤

[@jm9371]

That's the magic of chili. Your version will not be my version and both will probably taste AWESOME. I think I got some good tips from this video... thanks!

Great video!!!

[@AnnaReed42]

I'm not an IPA person so I never have one on hand, but I am definitely going to try the salsa shortcut. Absolute genius. I was wondering how you were going to get away with not chopping at LEAST an onion. I could see a Kona Big Wave working extremely well in a pot of chili.

[@Hoaxer51]

I wondered about the onion also, you really can’t have chili without onion. You should try to make it with your Kona Big Wave and maybe add some jalapeños or something else you might like and make it your own, you can call it Anna’s Big Wave Chili 🌶! Lol Enjoy

[@TheChugnut]

Please don't dismiss cooking with an IPA if you don't like it - I think you will miss out. Think of it more of a stock with different notes and flavours.

[@AnnaReed42]

@@TheChugnut it's not necessarily the flavor I'm concerned about. It's that I might need to buy a 6-pack of a beer that no one in my family will drink, or go way out of my way to go somewhere where I can just buy 1. Absolutely antithetical to the title of the recipe.

I just did something like that recently, though I did chop up a couple of jalapenos to give it heat. I like my chili a little on the dry side, so I drained the can diced tomatoes and drained the fat out of the beef before adding everything else.

1:20 Use ground chuck, not ground sirloin. The chuck is better for long cooks and has beefier taste

Chuck is only better for long cooks when it's not ground. This was just an hour simmer anyway. The flavor of chuck is great for beef stew, but I much prefer the flavor of sirloin otherwise.

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

For an EVEN LAZIER chili, use a crock pot. Dump everything in, and cook on high for 4 hours. A simplified, 'basic' chili recipe for a crock pot is ground beef, canned diced tomatoes, canned beans (red kidney beans, pinto beans, and/or black beans), roughly equal proportions of cayenne, cumin, and chili powder, and some some salt (season however you like, but that's a starting point for a standard chili flavor for people that have no idea what to use). Chili isn't the kind of recipe you need exact measurements for. You can cook the ground beef ahead of time, or just dump it in the crock pot, raw. Raw is lazier, and works just fine, but you have to wait until the end to adjust the seasoning (I start by adding some seasoning, then adding more after the meat is cooked enough to taste-test the seasoning). Anyway, dump everything in, stir it up (smoosh the hamburger into bits, if you didn't already cook it). Put some salt in, dump in some seasoning (knowing you will add more, to taste, at the end, and let it cook (4 hours on high or 6 hours on low). Sometimes I use 3 cans of diced tomatoes and 3 or 4 cans of beans, and roughly one pound of beef. It really doesn't matter, and the whole point is that it's a very lazy recipe that is impossible to screw up. Add WHATEVER YOU FEEL LIKE, and it will taste good. It's chili, and there are infinite ways to make chili. Beef with red beans, chicken with black beans... turkey meatballs, beans and habanero... anything you put in there will taste great.

this looks interesting and should taste nice; though chillis are never that taxing so I would probably look to find fresh onions, chillis and red pepper myself as theyd surely be better for you. Also sugar in a chilli is something I dont tend to do and that was a LOT of sugar.
