Note
For best results, ensure the brisket is cut into uniform 1-inch cubes so they cook evenly.
If the chili becomes too thick during simmering, add small amounts of water or broth to reach your desired consistency.
This chili tastes even better the next day after the flavors have had time to meld. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce along with the green chilies.
You can substitute the beer with beef broth if you prefer an alcohol-free version.
