Loaded with fresh veggies, spiced protein, and spiked with dark beer, this recipe is one of the best chili recipes you will ever make. You probably have all the ingredients in your fridge already, too. And it comes together in an hour. Though I won’t lie – dishing up seconds the next day (or 3) makes it even better. Garnish to your preference, though I like a healthy dose of sour cream, diced red onion, sliced avocado, cheddar cheese, green onion, hot sauce, some tortilla chips, and more beer. But that’s me.
Make my boozy beer chile con carne and chow down on camp-friendly food, kids. Because hell, if we can’t go camping, we can still eat like we are.
