Classic Boilermaker Tailgate Chili

Yesterday, I found myself craving something hearty and comforting, something that would remind me of those crisp fall afternoons at the tailgate. That’s when I decided to whip up a batch of my Classic Boilermaker Tailgate Chili. It’s a recipe that’s been passed down in my family, tweaked and perfected over the years, and today, I’m sharing it with you.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs ground beef (I prefer 80/20 for flavor, but lean works too)
• 1 large onion, diced (about 2 cups)
• 3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tbsp pre-minced)
• 2 tbsp olive oil (or any neutral oil)
• 2 cans (15 oz each) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
• 2 tbsp chili powder (adjust to taste)
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup beef broth (for deglazing and thinning)

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.
2. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Increase heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Break it apart with a spoon and cook until no longer pink, about 7-10 minutes.
5. Once the beef is cooked, deglaze the pot with beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
6. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer.
7. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. For deeper flavor, simmer for up to 2 hours.
8. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

Oh, the aroma that fills your kitchen is just the beginning. This chili is rich, with a perfect balance of spice and smokiness, and the beans add a lovely texture. Serve it with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of shredded cheese, or go all out with some cornbread on the side for the ultimate comfort meal.

Spicy Boilermaker Tailgate Chili with Bacon

Zesty flavors and hearty ingredients come together in this Spicy Boilermaker Tailgate Chili with Bacon, a dish that’s become a game-day staple in my household. I remember the first time I whipped this up for a tailgate; the aroma alone had neighbors peeking over the fence, and the taste? Let’s just say the pot was scraped clean.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend for best flavor)
• 6 slices bacon, chopped (thick-cut adds a nice chew)
• 1 large onion, diced (yellow for sweetness)
• 3 cloves garlic, minced (fresh is key)
• 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed (or black beans for variation)
• 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes (fire-roasted add depth)
• 2 tbsp chili powder (adjust heat to preference)
• 1 tsp cumin (toasted and ground releases more flavor)
• 1 cup beef broth (low-sodium to control saltiness)
• 1 tbsp olive oil (or any neutral oil)

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
2. Add chopped bacon and cook until crispy, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside.
3. In the same pot, add ground beef. Break it apart with a spoon and cook until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Tip: Don’t drain the fat; it adds flavor.
4. Add diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
5. Stir in chili powder and cumin, cooking for 1 minute to toast the spices and release their aromas.
6. Pour in diced tomatoes, kidney beans, and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Return the cooked bacon to the pot and simmer for an additional 10 minutes to meld flavors. Tip: If the chili thickens too much, add a splash of broth or water.
8. Season with salt to taste, but remember the bacon and broth already add saltiness.

Creamy beans, smoky bacon, and a kick of spice make this chili a bowl of comfort. Serve it over a baked potato or with a side of cornbread for a meal that’ll have everyone asking for seconds.
