INSTRUCTIONS

Heat oil in large, deep non-stick skillet. Pat beef and pork dry and toss
with flour. Brown in hot oil in batches. Remove and reserve each batch.
Discard all but 1 tbsp/15 mL fat from pan. Return pan to heat.
Add onions and garlic and cook gently until tender and fragrant, about 10
minutes. Add mild chiles, chili powder, cumin, oregano, cayenne and pepper.
Return beef and pork to skillet and combine well. Add stock and beer and
bring to boil. Cook gently, uncovered, for 2 to 3 hours, until meat is very
tender and mixture is thick. Stir in beans. Taste and adjust seasonings if
necessary.
Transfer chili to 3-qt/3 L casserole, top with cheese and bake in
pre-heated 350F/180C oven for 30 minutes, or until thoroughly heated.

NOTES : This chili uses small cubes of meat, but you can also use ground
meat. Top it with soft yogurt cheese and chopped green onions, or wrap in
flour tortillas. This recipe is from Bonnie Stern's Simply HeartSmart
Cooking and makes 12 servings.
