Classic Beef Chili

Fresh poblano, toasty ancho chile powder, oregano and beer come together to make a flavorful bowl of chili perfect for game day with friends.

How to Make It

  1. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high. Add onion, poblano, and garlic and cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add ground chuck and cook, stirring occasionally, until beef crumbles and is no longer pink, 8 to 10 minutes.
  3. Drain beef mixture well and return to Dutch oven over medium-high.
  4. Add tomato paste, ancho chile powder, cumin, salt, pepper, thyme, and oregano and cook, stirring often, 2 minutes.
  5. Increase heat to high. Stir in beans, tomatoes, chicken broth, and beer and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 30 minutes.
  6. Serve chili with desired toppings.
