"Chunks of tender stew beef and also ground beef are what makes this recipe truly "meaty". Extra flavor from beer really sets this chili recipe apart. A favorite of mine, always was in my head and decided to finally write it down and submit it. Feel free to play with the spices to your taste, everyone is different!"
