Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 1 large green pepper, seeded and chopped
- 2 jalapenos, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 28-oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 quart beef broth
- 1 cup Big Green Egg Vidalia Onion Sriracha Barbecue Sauce
- ⅓ cup chili powder
- 2 tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 3 lbs coarse ground beef, formed into a large patty
- 2 15-oz can of dark kidney beans, drained
Instructions
Set the EGG for direct cooking (without the convEGGtor) at 350°F/177°C. Preheat an uncovered Dutch oven, then add the oil for a few seconds to heat. Add the onion and green pepper and cook until soft; add the garlic and jalapenos and cook a few more minutes. Next add the tomatoes, broth, barbecue sauce, chili powder, cumin, brown sugar and pepper. Mix well and bring to a simmer.
Carefully remove the Dutch oven and the cooking grid; add two small chunks of apple wood to the charcoal. Insert the convEGGtor (for indirect cooking), replace the cooking grid and the Dutch oven and continue cooking at 350°F/177°C.
Season the ground beef patty with salt and pepper. Place a perforated cooking grid on top of the Dutch oven, then place the ground beef patty on the grid. Cook for 90 minutes. Remove the grid with the meat to a sheet pan. Add the beans and a bit more water if needed. Break the meat up with tongs and place it in the pot. Cook for another 30 minutes until everything is well blended and slightly thickened.
