CHINESE CHILI

Steps:

• Reserve about a tablespoon of the fat from the brisket and cut the meat in 1/2-inch dice. Lightly brown the fat on medium-high in a large sauté pan to slick the bottom. Add meat and cook until it loses its redness. Transfer meat and any juices to a bowl. Toss with soy sauce and hoisin.
• Reduce heat to low, add onions, bell pepper, jalapeños, habanero, garlic and ginger and cook until softened. Add Sichuan peppercorns and five spice, stir, then add ale. Bring to a simmer. Add tomatoes. Return meat and juices to the pan. Cover and simmer an hour and a half, until the meat is tender.
• Stir in vinegar. Mixture should be somewhat soupy; add some water if needed. Drizzle in chile oil to taste. Adjust salt with soy sauce. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

• Heat vegetable oil over medium heat in a large soup pot, and brown the pork and beef, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Mix in the green bell peppers, onions, and celery. Cook until the vegetables have given up their juice; cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in beef broth, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, black pepper, and chili powder.
• Mix the soy sauce and cornstarch in a bowl until smooth, and pour it into the soup. Stir until the soup thickens, about 1 minute; cover the chili, and reduce heat to a simmer.

• Let that simmer, and then stir in the hoisin sauce, sesame oil, chili oil, and soy sauce. You don't have to be exact with measurement because all of these flavors are pretty acquired, so do what you like.
• Once all of that is mixed you can mix in the drained beans.
• You can go ahead and serve it now, but I have also transferred this to a slow cooker and cooked from 1-12 hours, the longer you cook it the softer the beans with get.
• Serve with the crunchy chow mein noodles and chopped green onion.
