steps
- In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Sauté the onion until translucent. Add the carrot and cook to soften (about 5 minutes).
- Add the ground bison, raise heat to medium, and brown, breaking up the meat and stirring often until the meat is no longer pink (about 5 minutes).
- Add bell peppers, garlic, and jalapeno and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add cumin, coriander, chili powder, and red pepper flakes, and tomato paste and stir for 1 minute (blooming the spices so they have a richer flavor).
- Add beer and cook mixture to reduce it until almost dry. Add tomatoes, bay leaves, and beans. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, for about 20 minutes.
- Add sugar and stir well. Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with your favorite toppings. Serve over rice or on its own.
