BLACK BEAN KITCHEN SINK CHILI

I call this kitchen sink chili because I use it to get rid of all the leftovers!  Today I added some leftover crumbled bacon, cherry tomatoes and I was out of tomato juice so I used Budweiser Clamato.
 BLACK BEAN KITCHEN SINK CHILI
1 pound chuck steak, cut into 3/4 inch chunks**
15 ounce can diced tomato
1 can original Rotel tomatoes 
15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 cups tomato juice
2 cubes beef bouillon
medium red onion, chopped (reserve some for garnish)
1 bunch green onions, sliced (reserve some for garnish)
sour cream
grated cheese

  • Combine tomato juice and beef bouillon until well blended.
  • Add diced tomatoes, Rotel tomatoes, chili powder, garlic, salt and pepper to taste, blending well.
  • Add beef pieces, red onion and green onion.
  • Bring to a SLOW boil, reduce heat and then simmer 1 hour.
  • Top with sour cream, grated cheese and onions for garnish.
  • I served the chili over grilled hot dogs for hubby for opening night football.
**We had grilled rib eyes the night before and I got a great price on buying the family pack so we grilled them all and then I cut the remains into 3/4 inch chunks for the chili.  I have to say the charring added some great flavor.
