Servings: persons

1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 onion, chopped
1/2 pound ground Mexican chorizo, casing removed
1 pound ground beef
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 green bell pepper, chopped
16 ounces can black beans, drained
16 ounces can kidney beans, drained
16 ounces can diced tomatoes (preferably fire-roasted)
16 ounces can tomato sauce
2 hot chillies, minced (serrano, jalapeno, etc.)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 can good beer (optional)
cilantro, for garnish

1
Add the oil to a large frying pan over medium-high heat, then brown the onion, beef, and chorizo for about 3-4 minutes. Don't stir too often, allowing the onions and meat to brown on one side. Break apart any large clumps of ground meat.
2
Add the meat and onions to a heavy-bottomed pot, along with all the remaining ingredients. Make sure to wear latex gloves when handling the hot peppers!
3
If using beer (I recommend Guinness), pour just enough to cover the ingredients with liquid -- no more than half a can should be needed.
4
Cover the pot and simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes. If you find a lot of liquid forming on top of the chili, stir the chili and continue to cook with the lid removed. Serve garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.
5
Variations: Since the chorizo sausage is naturally spicy and flavorful, you can easily make this recipe without the hot chillies. An alternative is to add a few squirts of Sriracha sauce when combining the ingredients. Other beans can be substituted, such as pinto beans, but make sure at least one can is black beans!
