Directions

Render beef fat trimmings with cooking oil and bacon grease.

Sprinkle salt, Greek seasoning and black pepper on beef. Brown on all sides. Set beef aside.

In the same pot, over high heat and without draining the fat, add beer and wine. Reduce by 1/3. Strain into another container to rid of the burned sediment. Put strained liquid back into the pot. Add chili powder, garlic and onions. Cook down. Add water to thin out. Add jalapeƱo and habeneros. Add cumin and oregano. Add bullion cubes and chicken powder seasoning. Add more black pepper.

Cover and simmer on very low heat for 4 hours.

6 hours
