  • 16 oz can diced tomatoessliced kielbasa sausage (one package)
  • 16 oz can kidney beans1 bottle/can Lager (Your favorite)
  • 8 oz can tomato sauce
  • 2 to 3 tsp chili powder1 can of corn drainedTobasco sauce to taste
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • any other veggies you would like to add
    Tutorial:In a large saucepan cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the meat is brown.
  • Drain the fat from the pan.
  • Stir in the undrained tomatoes, beer, sausage, drained kidney beans, tomato sauce, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
