    Step 1.

    To serve, ladle into bowls, and top with corn chips and shredded Cheddar cheese.

    The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. Remove from heat and serve, or refrigerate, and serve the next day.

    Step 3.

    After 2 hours, taste, and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder if necessary.

    Step 4.

    Stir to blend, then cover and simmer over low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

    Step 5.

    Season with chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, oregano, cumin, hot pepper sauce, basil, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, and sugar.

    Step 6.

    Add the onion, celery, green and red bell peppers, chile peppers, bacon bits, bouillon, and beer.

    Step 7.

    Pour in the chili beans, spicy chili beans, diced tomatoes and tomato paste.

    Step 8.

    Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground chuck and sausage into the hot pan, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease.
