"This is the finest chili I've ever tasted, I've made it numerous times now, and I swear to God, I say that every single time. Everyone who has tried it has enjoyed it. I followed the recipe's instructions and occasionally, just for my own personal liking, added a few more vegetables "based on Mireille.

Ingredients
Olive oil, 4 tablespoons
1 chopped yellow onion
1 chopped red bell pepper
1 chopped Anaheim chili pepper
2 chopped red jalapenos, please
4 minced garlic cloves
2.2 lbs. of lean ground beef
Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 cup
1 grated garlic clove, or as desired
2 cubes of beef bouillon
1 light beer (12 fluid ounces), such as Coors®, in a can or bottle.
28 ounces of crushed San Marzano tomatoes in one can.
Fire-roasted diced tomatoes in a single (14.5 ounce) can
12 ounces of tomato paste in one can
1/2 cup of white wine
Chili powder, two tablespoons
2 teaspoons of cumin powder
Brown sugar, 1 tablespoon
1 teaspoon of chipotle sauce
dried basil, 2 1/2 tablespoons
smoked paprika, 1 1/2 tablespoons
1 salt shakerful
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
12 teaspoon of black pepper, ground
2 cans of Bush's® dark red kidney beans, each measuring 16 ounces
1 cup soured milk
3 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro
12 tsp of cumin seeds
Directions
STEP 1
Onion, bell pepper, Anaheim pepper, jalapeno peppers, and garlic are cooked and stirred in hot oil in a large pot over medium heat until softened.
STEP 2
Heat a sizable skillet over medium-high heat in the interim. Add Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder to the hot skillet with the beef and cook and stir for 5 to 7 minutes, or until browned and crumbly. Over the steak, crumble bouillon cubes and pour beer. Cook the liquid for another 3 minutes or so, scraping any browned bits from the skillet's bottom as you go. Combine pepper and meat mixture by stirring.
STEP 3
Add wine, tomato paste, tomato dice, crushed tomatoes, and tomato flakes to the beef mixture. Chili powder, 2 teaspoons of cumin, brown sugar, pepper sauce, basil, paprika, salt, oregano, and black pepper are used to season the food. Bring to a boil then turn heat down to medium. For about 90 minutes, cover and simmer, turning regularly, until the meat and veggies are quite soft and the flavors have infused the chili.
STEP 4
Combine kidney beans with veggies and meat. About 30 more minutes of simmering will get the beans to a heated state.
STEP 5
Sour cream, cilantro, and the final 1/2 teaspoon of cumin should be thoroughly processed in a food processor. Serve chili with the sour cream mixture.
