Ingredients
2 medium onions, diced
2 pounds ground beef
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 (12-ounce) bottle of stout
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 (15-ounce) cans kidney beans
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
4 cups water
Salt, to taste
For serving
fusilli pasta, cooked
sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
raw onion, diced

1
In a dutch oven, saute onions over medium-high heat 2-3 minutes - just until they start to sweat.
2
Add beef and cook until browned, about five minutes.
3
Add cocoa powder, chili powder, cumin, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, and cayenne powder. Coat the onions and beef thoroughly and cook 1 minute.
4
Deglaze the pan with stout. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes to cook out some of the alcohol.
5
Stir in tomato sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce.
6
Add beans, bay leaf, and garlic.
7
Cover with water. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer. Cook for 1 - 2 hours, until it has reduced to desired consistency. I let mine cook down until its a tad runnier than refried beans. Salt, taste, and adjust as it cooks.
8
Serve over cooked fusilli pasta. Top with shredded sharp cheddar cheese and raw diced onions.
