1 1/2 ts Cumin seeds
5 1/2 lb Trimmed beef brisket, cut
Into 3/4-inch cubes
Salt/freshly ground pepper
6 Garlic cloves; minced
4 mg Jalapenos; finely chopped

2 md Onion; finely chopped
1/2 c Commercial chili powder (see
Note)
3 tb Pure red mild chile powder

1 1/2 ts Ground coriander
12 oz Can beer
6 c Beef stock or canned broth

42 oz Canned Italian peeled

1 1/2 ts Oregano; crumbled
1/2 lb Coarsely ground beef chuck
2 Scallions; white and tender
Green portions; thinly

1. In a small dry skillet, toast the cumin seeds over
moderate heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant,
about 2 minutes. Grind the cumin in a spice mill or a
mortar. 2. Heat a large enameled cast-iron casserole.
Season the brisket with salt and pepper. Working in
batches, add the meat to the casserole and cook over
moderately high heat until well-browned all over,
about 8 minutes. Transfer each batch to a large plate.
3. Add the garlic, jalapenos and onions to the
casserole and cook over moderate heat, stirring
occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the
commercial chili powder and pure red chile powder,
coriander and half of the ground cumin and cook,
stirring, for 2 minutes. 4. Return the cooked brisket
to the casserole and add the beef stock, beer,
tomatoes and their liquid, and the oregano. Bring to
a boil over moderately high heat, then lower the heat
and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 3 hours.
Stir in the ground chuck, season with salt and cook
until the brisket is very tender and the sauce is
thickened, about 1 hour longer. Stir in the remaining
cumin and simmer for 15 minutes. Garnish with the
scallions and serve.

All-American Chili:

6 ounces hot turkey Italian sausage
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
8 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ground sirloin
1 jalapeño pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 bay leaves
1 1/4 cups Merlot or other fruity red wine
2 (28-ounce) cans whole tomatoes, undrained and coarsely chopped
2 (15-ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Remove casings from sausage. Add sausage, onion, and the next 4 ingredients (onion through jalapeño) to pan; cook 8 minutes or until sausage and beef are browned, stirring to crumble.

Add chili powder and the next 7 ingredients (chili powder through bay leaves), and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in wine, tomatoes, and kidney beans; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Uncover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard the bay leaves. Sprinkle each serving with cheddar cheese.

Note: Like most chilis, this version tastes even better the next day.
