prep time 25 Min
cook time 6 Hr
method Stove Top
yield 8 or more

Ingredients

  • 4 pounds 93/7 ground beef
  • 3 cans 14.5 ounce diced tomato's
  • 2 medium onions
  • 5 tablespoons chile powder(i use gebhardts from texas)
  • 3 tablespoons ground cumin powder
  • 6 teaspoons minced garlic prepared in jar or 6 fresh
  • 1or 2 medium jalapeno's
  • 1 bottle beer
  • 4 tablespoons canola oil

How To Make tex-mex chili

  • Step 1
    In large pot add oil and when it gets hot add the ground meat. Add onions and garlic. When meat is cooked add the canned tomatoes, chili powder, and cumin powder. Mix ingredients well. After mixture comes to a boil, lower heat to low to where it is lightly boiling. Stir this off and on. If there is not much juice, add beer. If necessary, you can add more beer if it seems to be to thick. You want the juice, especially if you make my Tex-Mex Cheese enchiladas.
  • Step 2
    Add the chopped fine jalapeno after about an hour. If you want to use some Frank's bottled hot sauce instead add to your taste or don't add any peppers or sauce. Add any leftover pinto beans from the Frijolis Borachos about 2 cups about an hour before you are ready to eat or put on enchiladas.
