Easy Weeknight Newcastle Brown Ale Chili

The holiday season is in high-gear around here, so an Easy Weeknight Chili is a must when things get hectic. This is no ordinary chili – nope, I’ve cooked up this version with some Newcastle Brown Ale to give it added richness and depth.

Of course I’m a fan of Newcastle Brown Ale on its own, but I also love throwing it into recipes like this or in my cheesy beer dip for some punched-up flavor. For that matter, it’s my new favorite go-to ingredient when I want to give my standard recipes a quick flavor tweak.

I made this the other night and Naomi and I sat outside and enjoyed it like you see below–out of tin mugs with a cold beer, no kids and it was better than we expected – the chili and the no kid time.

Newcastle Brown Ale is widely available nationwide, so you got this. Go get some and make this chili or make a recipe of your own. Whatever you do, just get busy cooking with America’s #1 brown ale.
