Ingredients:
1 large onion about 2 cups, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely diced
3 cups leftover smoked tri-tip, cut up into 1-inch cubes
3 tablespoons chili powder (Any combination of chili powders you like)
1 tablespoon cumin
½ tablespoon canned chipotle in adobo sauce
½ tablespoon smoked paprika
1 12 oz bottle beer
¼ cup coffee, cold leftover coffee from your morning pot
1 15 oz can diced tomatoes
1 15 oz can tomato sauce
1lbs fresh cooked beans (or you can mix/match ½ cans of your favorite bean types)
1 cup grilled corn (or ½ can corn, drained and rinsed. Use a standard 15 oz can)
1 4 oz can diced green chili
Method:
In a large pot over medium heat, sauté onions and cook until soft (about 5 minutes). Add bell pepper and garlic; cook 1 additional minute to soften.
Add the leftover cubed tri-tip and all dry seasonings. Let cook 1 minute stirring often. Get those seasonings integrated!
Add beer and allow it to deglaze the pan and cook off the alcohol (about 1-2 minutes). Then add coffee, tomatoes, beans, corn, and green chili.
Bring to a low simmer, put in smoker and let cook minimum of 1 hour. The longer it cooks the more integrated and concentrated the flavors get. My recommendation is at least an hour (or better yet two) for a nice rich chili.
