Excellent! Glad you enjoyed. You can really use any good dark beer but seeing as how I "invented" this using Sam Okty, I go with it! :D

After reading your post, I think I need to whip up a batch this weekend. US football has started here, the leaves are falling and the air becoming crisp at night. Perhaps we'll go to the orchard and pick apples and make it a super pre-Fall weekend! :)

Awesome!

Couldn't get Sam Adams so opted for a dark German beer instead.
The addition of the steak is a total winner for me and is going to be a keeper in any future Chilli recipe.
If i do it again i'll whack all the beans in so they have the full cooking time, and maybe add a couple more chillis, cos i like it hot!
But overall, the flavours in this are great. This recipe is perfect for throwing a batch together at the start of the day, leaving it on to simmer forever then enjoying with a beer in the evening.

Result!

Anyone got any other variations to try?
