Frank's Fiery Alabama Beer-and-Onion Chili

Frank's Fiery Alabama Beer-and-Onion Chili delivers a deep, robust beef flavor with layered heat from jalapeños, chili powder, hot sauce, and red pepper flakes. Beer and tomatoes round it out with malty richness and a hearty, chunky texture, while plenty of onions add sweetness and bite. Ideal for game day, chilly evenings, or any time you want a bold, warming bowl.

  1. 1

    Break up the ground chuck in a large skillet over medium heat; cook, stirring, until browned evenly. Drain.

  2. 2

    Move the beef to a large pot. Add the tomato sauce, chili beans, diced tomatoes, beer, onions, jalapeños, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, and red pepper flakes.

  3. 3

    Cover the pot and simmer over low heat, stirring now and then, for about 2 hours. Let it cool completely. Refrigerate for two days (it gets better with time).
