Dragon's Breath #1 Chili

Our Chili Con Carne's built for flavor.

It all starts in the smoker, not the pot. We smoke both the chuck and the ground beef low and slow until they’re kissed with cherry smoke and just shy of tender. Then everything moves from the smoker to the pot, where fire-roasted tomatoes, kidney beans, dark ale, and rich beef stock meld with cocoa and espresso. The result is a deep, smoky chili with layers of flavor and a gentle heat that warms without overpowering.

For the next few hours it simmers down into a deep, smoky chili with a balance of spice, savor, and richness that only slow cooking can deliver. We serve it with rice, shredded cheddar and sour cream on the side.

No shortcuts. Just real chili, done the Pendragon way.

Contains stout, fully simmered off during cooking. No alcohol remains, just flavor.
