  • 2 pounds ground grass fed beef
  • 1 pound ground liver or spicy Italian sausage

  • ½ yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 2 green chile peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 2 slices bacon
  • 1 cup organic beef broth (homemade broth is best: I always store extra in my freezer)
  • ¼ cup chili powder
  • 1 TBS minced garlic
  • 3 TBS fresh oregano
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 3 TBS fresh basil
  • 1 tsp Celtic sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • TOPPINGS:
  • Fried Eggs
  • Avocado, cubed into 1 cm chunks
  • Bacon, fried and crumbled
  • If desired, serve in a bread bowl:

  • BREAD BOWL:
  • 3 eggs, separated
  • ½ tsp cream of tartar
  • ¼ cup unflavored egg white or whey protein
  • 3 oz organic sour cream or cream cheese (or yolks if dairy sensitive)

  1. Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chuck, bacon and sausage into the hot pan, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease. Pour in the tomato sauce. Add the onion, celery, green and red bell peppers, chile peppers, and broth. Season with chili powder, garlic, oregano, cumin, basil, salt, pepper, cayenne, and paprika. Stir to blend, then cover and simmer over low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally. After 2 hours, taste, 
  2. and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. Remove from heat and serve, or refrigerate, and serve the next day. Top with a fried egg, avocado and bacon pieces.
  3. To make the Bread Bowl: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Separate the eggs (reserve the yolks). In a clean and dry bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff. Then add the protein powder until smooth. Using a spatula, gradually fold the cream cheese/sour cream into the white mixture (OR YOLKS if dairy sensitive), being careful not to break down the whites. Grease muffin tins and spoon the mixture into the pan (forming a dip in the middle), making 12 medium bowls or 24 mini bowls. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes. You may need to put the center down once they come out so you can fill it with chili.

When ready to cook, start the Traeger grill on Smoke with the lid open until the fire is established (4 to 5 minutes). Set the temperature to 325 degrees F and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 15 minutes.
On the stove-top, pre-heat a dutch oven. Chop meat and generously season on all sides with salt and pepper.
Add olive oil to dutch oven and brown beef on all sides – working in two batches as not to crowd the pan.
After browning the meat, add beer to the dutch oven and cover until it comes to a boil.
In a separate pan on the stovetop, add olive oil, onion and garlic and sautรฉ until slightly browned and translucent. Add peppers and cook for about 10 minutes or until they begin to soften.
Add the onions and peppers to the meat and beer mixture. Then add the beans, tomatoes, chipotle peppers and seasoning. Cover with lid and let come to a simmer. 
Transfer the dutch over to the Traeger grill and cook at 325 degrees F uncovered, for 3 hours or until the beef is extremely tender. 
Add tomato paste and stir. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. 
Optionally, finely chop the chocolate bar and add to the chili at the last minute, stirring thoroughly. Enjoy!
