This Tex-Mex chili con carne recipe (or simply chili) is infused with the delicious flavor of Mexican mole sauce, with spicy, tangy, and chocolatey notes—a couple of tablespoons of cocoa powder and a pinch of cinnamon do the trick. This chili is made with black beans and served with fresh vegetables: avocado, red cabbage, and cilantro. Squeeze with lime juice and enjoy!

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat the oven to broil. Place the tomatoes, garlic, poblano, onion, and serrano pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Grill, turning, until charred on all sides, about 3 minutes for the garlic and 10 minutes for the other vegetables. Let cool slightly, then core the tomatoes, remove the stems from the peppers, and peel the garlic. Transfer all the roasted vegetables to a blender and blend until a chunky sauce forms.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large cauldron or saucepan over high heat. Season the meat with salt and black pepper, add the beef in batches, and cook until browned on all sides, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer the browned meat to a large plate.
- Add the chili powder, cumin, flour, oregano, chipotle pepper, and cinnamon to the skillet and stir to form a paste. Add the beer and 2 cups of water. Return the meat to the pot along with any juices, the tomato-pepper mixture, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes. Add the beans, return to a simmer, and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender and the sauce has thickened, about 1.5 hours more.
- Add cocoa powder and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with diced avocado, shredded red cabbage, cilantro leaves, Cotija cheese, and lime wedges.
