Ingredients
- 4 pounds beef chuck roast (trimmed of excess fat, cut into ½ inch chunks)
- salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 6 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
- 3 jalapeños (seeded and diced)
- 1 large yellow onion (diced)
- 5 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (seeded and finely chopped)
- 28 ounces crushed tomatoes (1 can)
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 cups beef stock (or broth)
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons chipotle chili powder
- 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Steps
-
Season the beef with kosher salt and black pepper.
-
In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat and brown half of the meat. Repeat with remaining beef. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Add remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and heat 30 seconds. Add the jalapeno peppers and onions and saute for about 10 minutes onions are softened. (Do not brown them).
-
Stir in garlic and seasoning mix and cook 30 seconds or just until fragrant.
-
Add the beef back into the pot along with remaining ingredients.
-
Bring the chili to a boil and then turn the heat down to low.
-
Simmer, uncovered, for 3 to 3 ½ hours stirring occasionally so it doesn’t stick. If it becomes too thick, add more stock as needed.
-
Before serving remove the bay leaves and serve plain or covered with sour cream, shredded cheese, or green onions.
