1 pound ground beef
6 ounces hot Italian turkey sausage ((casings removed))
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
8 medium garlic cloves, (minced)
1 medium jalapeño pepper, (seeds removed and finely chopped)
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt
2 whole bay leaves

Steps

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, sausage, onion, bell pepper, garlic and jalapeno to the pan. Saute for 8 minutes or until the sausage and beef are browned, stirring to crumble.
Add the tomato paste, chili powder, brown sugar, cumin, oregano, pepper, salt and bay leaves. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the tomatoes, kidney beans and wine; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Uncover the chili and cook for 30 additional minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard the bay leaves. Sprinkle each serving with cheddar cheese. Garnish with jalapeno, if desired.
