วิธีทำ

Prepare the chili base

On the stovetop, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a 6-qt Dutch oven (*see Notes). Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic, and sauté 5 minutes or until onion is translucent. Remove from the heat.

Add the remaining ingredients for the chili base. Set aside.

Prepare the ground beef "loaf"

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and Montreal steak seasoning until just combined taking care not to over work the meat.

Form the meat into a loaf without packing too hard. Set aside.

Smoke the chili in a smoker

Prepare the smoker to smoke with hickory wood at a steady 275°F-300°F.

Place the Dutch oven with the chili base, uncovered, on a grill rack.

Place the ground beef "loaf" on a grill grate over the Dutch oven.

Cook 2 hours or until internal temperature of the beef is 150°F.

Break up the meat into small crumbles and add to the chili. Cook an additional 2 hours or until chili is nice and thick. Do not add more wood for smoke.

Remove chili from the heat and stir in the chocolate. Serve as desired.
