Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¾ cup (177 g / 6 ounces) beer, we used an IPA
  • ½ cup (56.5 g) Pepper Jack cheese, shredded
  • 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup black beans, drained, rinsed
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely diced (about ½ of a small onion)
  • 1 small jalapeño, seeded, finely diced
  • 1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilis, drained
  • fresh tomatoes, diced for garnish
  • fresh cilantro, chopped for garnish
  • lime wedges, for garnish
  • tortilla chips, for serving

Instructions

  1. To a large skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you go, until no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes). Drain grease.
  2. Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
  3. Pour in the beer. Let it simmer for about 4-5 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce slightly.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
  5. Add the shredded cheese and Velveeta to the skillet. Stir occasionally until all the cheese is melted and smooth.
  6. Add black beans, red onion, jalapeno, and tomatoes. Stir to combine.
  7. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
  8. Garnish with freshly diced tomatoes, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime.
  9. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.
