How To Make denise's secret recipe chili

1
Heat oil in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onions, bacon and garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent and bacon is cooked, about 8 minutes. Remove bacon to plate. Add chuck and sauté until brown, breaking up meat with back of spoon, about 5 minutes. Add rest of spices. Stir 2 minutes. Mix in crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, beer and tomato paste. Simmer until thickened to desired consistency, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Mix in beans. Simmer 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, top with fresh cilantro and grated cheese. NOTE: you may want to cut back a bit on the spices at first, if you prefer a milder chili, and increase as your taste buds indicate.
