Preparation
- Step 1
Warm olive oil and pancetta in large pan over medium heat. Cook until pancetta has rendered its fat. Remove with slotted spoon. Add onion, garlic, pepper and chilies to pan, cook until onions are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Spread beef in pan, and cook until no longer pink, and beginning to brown.
- Step 2
Stir in pancetta, chili powder, cumin, paprika, allspice and oregano. Add tomatoes and tomato sauce, then stir in broth and beer. Simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, more often at the end. Chili is done when liquid has reduced and sauce just coats ingredients. Stir in vinegar, and season to taste with salt. Shut off heat, and rewarm gently when ready to spoon on hot dogs.

Made this for my son and his friends and due to their delicate palates, I omitted the red pepper and ancho chilies. I didn't have pancetta, so I used bacon. I used canned San Marzano whole tomatoes, about 4 tomatoes, and smooshed them by hand. This chili was a hit with the kids!
I made this hot chili exactly as written and it was a huge hit. It’s been requested on repeat ever since. It freezes well, which is handy.
The recipe calls for half a “red pepper.” Do we think this means a half of a red bell pepper or a different kind of red pepper?
Fantastic! And, the house smelled terrific too!
