Directions
- Place a large pot over medium heat. Add Chipotle olive oil and heat under shimmering.
- Add meat and sauté until browned, then drain and set aside in a bowl.
- Add onion to the pot, stir for 1 minute.
- Take two large sips from the beer, and pour the rest into the pot :)
- Stir in the tomatoes, Espresso Balsamic, and tomato paste. Add the cocoa powder, chipotle pepper, cumin, coriander, cayenne, salt, and kidney beans.
- Return the meat to the pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partly covered for 1 hour.
