Meat Lovers Chipotle Chili

In a large pot, brown the ground beef and the stew meat. Once it’s mostly cooked, pour off any excess fat.

Meanwhile, combine the onion, garlic and chipotle in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until everything is chopped up ultra fine (almost smooth). Add the mixture to the pot and stir to combine with the meat. Cook for five minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, water and cumin to the pot. Salt and pepper to your desired taste. Stir and then cover. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour.

Serve, garnished with cheese, sour cream and/or avocado chunks.
