The RoadHouse folks shared their recipe for Hot Willie's Texas Chili. To get the right zing, they suggest using a good chili powder. The recipe was tested by Karen Uber, a student in hospitality management at the University of Akron.
Heat olive oil in large skillet. Add ground sirloin, onion and garlic and cook until meat is browned on all sides. Drain to remove oil and fat. Place meat in a large metal pot and add canned tomatoes, tomato sauce and beer.
Stir in chili powder, cumin, sugar, pepper, bouillon, salt and cilantro.
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 1-¼ hours. Twenty minutes before serving, add kidney beans (with liquid). Add cayenne pepper, a pinch at a time, to taste. Top with chopped onion, grated sharp cheese, chopped fresh tomato, chopped green or red pepper, or sour cream, if desired.
