Rainy Day Chili (With Meat)

I made this today since it was rainy this morning. I use every excuse on the planet to make chili !
1 lb. ground meat (chicken, turkey or beef)
1 large onion , minced
1 bell pepper, any color
jalapeno to taste
2 teaspoons chili powder (more if you like it a lot)
2 teaspoons of cumin
Salt and Pepper
Beer
2 28 oz. cans diced tomatoes

Get a large pot hot, hot , hot - add oil (I use EVOO) and add onion, bell pepper and ground meat. Break up the meat but also don't mess with it too much - you want it to caramelize and get delicious brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Once the meat is browned drain off excess fat , if necessary. Add beer to pot and scrape up any brown bits on bottom. Add tomatoes, jalapeno,chili powder, cumin , salt and pepper. Let cook for minimum of 15 minutes and serve with cheese, tortilla chips, corn bread, sour cream or whatever chili fixins you like.
