Cowboy Beef & Bean Chili

Step 1

Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are starting to soften, 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 3

Add bulgur, Worcestershire sauce, ancho chile powder, regular chili powder, paprika, cumin and salt and cook, stirring, until aromatic, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Step 4

Stir in kidney beans, then pour in broth and beer; bring to a boil.

Step 5

Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and thickened and the bulgur is tender, about 50 minutes.
