• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 2 medium white onions, chopped
• 3 Tbsp minced garlic
• 2 28oz cans fire roasted crushed tomatoes with juice

• 6oz stout

Optional

• Adding a bit more tomatoes helps keep the chili moist

Directions

1. Prepare your smoker to 250 degrees
2. Add oil to skillet and sauté onions, garlic, and adobo pepper. Cook for ~10 minutes until onions are translucent; remove mixture and place into a Dutch oven
3. Cook the ground in the same skillet, drain the fat, and place in the Dutch oven along with the diced brisket
