Dirty Penny Ale "Big Game" Chili
from Matthew Lubanko, Madison, CT
3 pounds ground beef
1 pound hot Italian sausage or chicken sausage.
2 medium sized onions
4 cloves of garlic
1 28-oz can of diced tomatoes (not pureed), or six "squishy" ripe tomatoes sliced into small pieces
1 pint Dirty Penny Ale
1-2 packets of Durkee's Chili spice, or add chilli powder to taste.
Salt
Pepper
Cook ground beef and diced sausage together. Add salt, pepper, and flaky red pepper (if you like). Drain the grease from the cooked ground beef and sausage mixture. Set the drained ground beef/sausage aside on a plate. In the same skillet, saute onions, garlic and tomatoes. After four or five minutes, add ground beef and powdered chilli spice. Pour in one-pint -- or close to one-pint -- of Dirty Penny Ale. Keep stirring the mixture until there's an agreeable blend of spices, tomato flavor, beef, sausage and liquid. Don't add too much ale, but don't use too little. Ideally, you want a chilli that's not too watery but not too dry. Simmer over low heat for at least one hour.
