Note

For best results, use a dark beer such as a stout or lager to enhance the savory depth.

The brisket should be cut into small, uniform cubes to ensure even cooking with the ground pork.

This chili improves in flavor if made a day ahead; refrigerate overnight and reheat gently before serving.

Adjust the amount of chili powder and tequila based on your preferred heat level.

Serve with traditional toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, diced onions, or cilantro.
