Mama’s Beer & Curry Chili
  1. Brown the meat: In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned and crumbly. Drain excess fat if needed.

  2. Sauté aromatics: Add onion and garlic. Cook 4–5 minutes until soft and fragrant.

  3. Deglaze with beer: Pour in the beer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it bubble for 2–3 minutes.

  4. Build the base: Stir in the spaghetti sauce, beans, and corn.

  5. Spice it up: Add hot sauce, honey, curry powder, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well.

  6. Simmer: Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chili thickens and flavors meld.

  7. Taste & adjust: Add more hot sauce for spice, more honey for balance, or a splash of beer if you want a looser texture.
