Easy Stovepipe Porter Chili

Easy Stovepipe Porter Chili                                     Made in 2.5qt Slow Cooker

1-      Vidalia Onion
1-      Green Pepper
1lbs- Ground Beef
1/2 Bottle- Otter Creek Stovepipe Porter
1/4cup- Cup Chilli Powder
2tsp- Garlic powder or 1 Clove Fresh Garlic
2can- Diced Tomato
1can- Dark Red Kidney Beans
1/2tsp- Cocoa Powder
1/2tsp- Sugar

      In a frying pan brown the ground beef. Strain off grease. Cook chopped onion, pepper and garlic in the ground beef for 15 min or until soft. Toss meat, onion and pepper in the crock pot. Mix in chilli powder, beans, tomatoes, porter, cocoa powder, and sugar. Set to low for at least 5 hours. If in a time crunch you maybe able to go on high for 3 to 4 hours. I always go low and slow myself though.
      Keep sharp cheddar on hand to toss on top. I usually make corn bread as a side to the chilli. The Black IPA pairs best with this chilli. Both beers are offered in the Otter Creek sampler pack. Enjoy!
