How to Make Bbq Beef And Baked Bean Chili Rachael Ray

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, cook 1/2 pound bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pot.
  3. Add 1.5 pounds of sirloin beef to the pot and break it up with a wooden spoon or potato masher while browning.
  4. Season with 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, and 1 teaspoon ground black pepper.
  5. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until softened (7-8 minutes).
  6. Stir in 2 (15-ounce) cans of baked beans, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, and 1 cup of beer. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  7. Add 1 (15-ounce) can of chili sauce and salt to taste. Continue to simmer.
  8. Meanwhile, prepare biscuits: In a bowl, combine 1 cup biscuit mix, 1/2 cup milk, 2 green onions (chopped), and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  9. Drop 6 spoonfuls of biscuit batter onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.
  10. Top biscuits with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and bake for another 3 minutes.
  11. A few minutes before serving, stir the reserved crispy bacon back into the chili.
  12. Serve chili hot, topped with a warm, cheesy biscuit.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
