Ingredients | Cutting Triangles For Quilting

2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste

2 pounds beef stew meat, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces

1 onion, diced

5 cloves garlic, minced

¼ cup red wine

1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce

1 (16 ounce) can red chili beans in sauce

1 (15.5 ounce) can small white beans, rinsed and drained

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

½ teaspoon white sugar

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon ground coriander

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika

1 pinch ground cinnamon

1 pinch ground nutmeg

Directions

Heat enough olive oil in a large pot to cover the bottom of the pot over high heat; sear beef in hot oil in batches until completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Remove browned beef with a slotted spoon to a bowl between batches.

Pour some olive oil into the pot with the browned bits of beef on the bottom; heat until shimmering. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until beginning to brown, 5 to 7 minutes.

Pour red wine into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until the wine reduces slightly in volume, about 5 minutes.

Pour tomato sauce, chili beans with sauce, white beans, black beans, and kidney beans into the pot; stir. Bring the mixture to a simmer and reduce heat to medium-low. Stir sea salt, cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, sugar, garlic powder, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, and nutmeg into the beef mixture. Cook until the beef is very tender, 2 to 3 hours.

It is important not to overcrowd the meat when searing and browning as you will sweat the meat when there is not enough room for the moisture to cook off and searing/browning to occur; patience is key.

Serving ideas: over rice, over mac and cheese (homemade of course), over baked potatoes.

This chili stores well in the fridge for 2 to 3 days or in the freezer for several weeks or months in the proper container.

If you're in a hurry, increase heat slightly and cook 60 to 90 minutes.

Alternately, you can bake this in a casserole dish in an oven set to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), or in a slow cooker.
