Not sure how many of you fellas cook, but I made some wicked chili the other night and figured I would post the recipe in case anyone was feeling adventurous to try it out.

* 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, (I used olive oil)
* 1 onion, chopped
* 5 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 pound ground beef
* 1 (14.5 ounce) can peeled and diced tomatoes with juice
* 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle dark beer ( I used Leffe)
* 1 cup strong brewed coffee
* 2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
* 1 (14 ounce) can beef broth
* 1/4 cup chili powder
* 1/8 cup cayenne powder
* 1 tablespoon ground cumin
* 1/4 cup cane sugar
* 1 teaspoon ground coriander
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 3 tablespoon wasabi mustard
* 3 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans
* 1 jalepeno pepper, sliced

1. Place oil in a large pot and place the pot over medium heat. Cook and stir the onions, garlic, and beef until meat is browned. Pour in the tomatoes, beer, coffee, tomato paste and broth. Season with chili powder, cumin, sugar, cayenne, coriander, salt and wasabi mustard. Stir in one can of beans, bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer.

2. Stir in remaining 2 cans of beans and cook 45 minutes more.
 
Hmmmm, sounds interesting. Might have to try that sometime. My favorite chili recipe uses most of the same ingredients minus a few on your list there (coffee, Wasabi). And I cook mine in a crock pot after I brown the meat (beef tips). Makes it nice & tender.
 
I know you all may think it's a bit weird for coffee to be in chili, but the over all flavor is amazing. It's partly sweet, but has some very nice heat to it. Not enough to burn your mouth off, just enough to let you know the chili is there and it's not going away... that is until you eat it all.
 
My favorite Chili:

1. Welcome to Wendy's can I help you?

2. I'd like 1 large Chili please.

3. $2.49 pull to the 2nd window.

4. You're all set, have a nice day.

Sorry...that recepie sounds good though man. My mom makes this beef stew with beer and it's delicious. I'm saving this to my favorites. I'm trying it when I get some time to cook a good meal.
