Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, add the ground beef to a dry, cold pot. Turn the heat to high. (1 minute)

02

Step

As the beef begins to sizzle, use a potato masher or sturdy spatula to break it up into small pieces. The texture is up to you – very fine crumbles or larger chunks. Continue cooking, breaking up the beef, until it's no longer pink, about 7 minutes.

03

Step

Add the chili powder, chipotle pepper, black pepper, salt, and cinnamon to the pot. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to toast the spices and release their aromas. (1 minute)

04

Step

Pour in the Hazy IPA beer. Stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it bubble away until the liquid is reduced by about half, about 2-3 minutes. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Add the sugar, oregano, garlic powder, diced tomatoes (with their juices), and jarred salsa. Stir well to combine. Return the mixture to a simmer. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Stir in the drained pinto beans. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the chili has thickened and the flavors have melded to your liking, about 1 hour. (60 minutes)

07

Step

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Ladle into bowls and top with sour cream, green onions, Cheddar cheese, and fresh cilantro leaves. Serve immediately.

For an even deeper flavor, brown the ground beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Feel free to experiment with different types of beans, such as kidney beans or black beans.
If you prefer a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a chopped jalapeño.
This chili tastes even better the next day! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
