Beef, Bean, and Beer Chili
Hot chili is a very underrated summer menu item. Bring a big ol' thermos of this to a picnic or other warm weather cookout, and it makes a great side to those grilled burgers and dogs. Just have some insulated cups around, and maybe some hot sauce, and you're in business. But no matter what season it is, I hope you give this beef, bean, and beer chili a try soon.

Place a pot over high heat.
Drizzle in vegetable oil.
Add diced onion, ground beef, and salt.
Break up meat with wooden spoon into small pieces as it browns.
After meat browns and releases its juices, continue stirring until the released liquid evaporates, about 4 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-high.
Add garlic, chile powder, cumin, paprika, black pepper, and cinnamon.
Cook and stir until mixture begins to darken, 3 or 4 minutes.
Add cocoa powder, oregano, cayenne, water, and tomato purée; stir well.
Bring to a simmer; adjust heat to medium-low.
Simmer 30 minutes.
Stir in diced green pepper and pinto beans.
If mixture becomes too thick, add a bit more water.
Simmer until peppers are tender and flavors have blended, about 30 more minutes.
