We are in the kitchen with Jen from Bakerette today and she has cooked up a savory Thick and Chunky Chili with Sirloin to share with us!
It looks amazing, especially yummy this time of year as the weather’s getting colder and winter is almost here. I won’t keep you waiting any longer…
Hello What’s Cooking With Ruthie fans! I’m Jen from Bakerette.com and I’m excited to be back to share with you another family favorite recipe: Thick and Chunky Chili with Sirloin.
Flavorful ingredients, hearty sirloin, and a thick, rich sauce makes this a five-star chili that’s sure to win you over. You can make this with either beef broth or a dark beer. I actually use O’Doul’s, which is a non-alcoholic brew. If you use beer, the alcohol is cooked out while simmering and adds an amazing flavor!
It’s the perfect dish for this time of year when the leaves are falling and the air is turning chill. Serve it with cornbread for a complete meal.
Thick and Chunky Chili Recipe with Sirloin
Ingredients
- 2 pounds sirloin, cubed (you can also use 1 lb. ground beef and 1 lb. sirloin)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- 1 15 ounce can tomato sauce
- 1 6 ounce can tomato paste
- 1 15 ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth or 1, 12 ounce bottle of dark beer
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 28 ounce can chili beans
Instructions
- Warm 1 tablespoon oil on medium high heat. Add sirloin and simmer until cooked through (about 4 minutes on each side). Add chopped onion and garlic and saute with meat until onions are transparent. Transfer to a 4-quart Crock Pot.
- Stir in remaining ingredients and cook on low for 2-3 hours.
Notes
If you use beer, the alcohol is cooked out while simmering and adds a great flavor.

Amanda says
Can’t wait to make this tomorrow! Do you think a chocolate/coffee stout will taste okay? If not, I’ll go the beef broth route.. either way, it looks so delicious!
Ruthie says
I am sure the coffee stout will work just fine- if everyone eating it enjoys the subtle coffee taste that it will bring (I would love it) if not then go with the more gentle flavor of beef broth… you’ll love this recipe!! xoxox~ Ruthie

This chili recipe rocks and is perfect for this time of year. I’ve received so many compliments on it. I, myself, was not a big chili fan, but am now because of this recipe. Great job!

I have been making the same chili recipe for years and wanted to try a different kind. I came across yours because of the chunky sirloin. It did not disappoint!! Garnished with avocado and shredded cheddar cheese. It was so good. Thank you for the change up!

We are so happy to hear that you loved it! We hope it’ll become a regular too 🙂
