Award Winning Chili

My dad used to make the best chili and Ak absolutely loved it. I never had a chance to get the recipe so I have been trying to make my own, but have never been that pleased.

My mom and her friends entered a chili cook off contest in the neighborhood and out of 25 entries they won!! I test-tasted it the night they were making it and was very impressed.

So here it goes....

2 pounds ground chuck
1 pound ground turkey
1 pound ground sweet Italian sausage
1-2 onions
2-3 green bell peppers
Saute all together

Add:
4 cans red/black beans
4 cans fire roasted tomatoes
2 cans tomato paste
1 can diced green chilies
2 bottles brown ale
2 tb chili powder
4 cloves garlic
4 bay leaves
2 tb cumin
2 tb Wooster
1 tb brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste

Now as you can tell this makes a ton of chili, so split in half for a smaller group or cook it at your next shindig!
