Steps:
- Toss the beef with 1 tablespoon each brown sugar and salt in a large bowl. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef in batches until browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes (do not crowd the pan). Transfer to a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker.
- Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion to the skillet and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, chiles, cumin and chili powder and cook 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water and the tomatoes and simmer, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the slow cooker, cover and cook on low, 7 hours.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon brown sugar and the hot sauce to the chili. Serve with scallions, cilantro and/or sour cream for topping, and chips, if desired. (Reserve 3 to 4 cups for Chili-Corn Casserole.).
- Use the leftover chili to make Chili-Corn Casserole.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add meat in a single layer (you'll need to cook it in batches). Brown for 1-2 minutes on each side and then move to slow cooker. Continue this process, adding more oil to pan if needed, until all meat is browned and in slow cooker.
- In the same pan, add onions, celery, jalapeño, salt, and pepper. Saute until celery is softened and onion is translucent. Add garlic and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
- Add chili seasoning, brown sugar, and oregano and continue to cook, stirring, until fragrant (1-2 minutes). Add tomato paste and stir to coat vegetables with tomato paste. Keep stirring to prevent burning. Add beer and cook for 4-5 minutes or until slightly reduced. Add this mixture to the slow cooker.
- Add crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, and bay leaf. Stir to combine all ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until meat is tender.
- Remove bay leaf and stir in parsley and cilantro. Sprinkle masa on top and stir in. If needed, add more (1 tablespoon at a time) to thicken chili further. Keep in mind it will thicken slightly if it continues to cook, and also as it cools.
- Serve with your desired toppings.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality meats: Opt for well-trimmed cuts of chuck roast and pork shoulder for a flavorful and tender chili.
- Brown the meats before slow cooking: Searing the meats in a pan or Dutch oven intensifies their flavor and adds a nice depth of color to the chili.
- Use a variety of beans: Combining different types of beans, such as kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans, adds texture and complexity to the chili.
- Don't skimp on the spices: A good chili relies on a flavorful blend of spices. Be sure to include chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Add some heat: If you like your chili with a kick, add some diced jalapeños, cayenne pepper, or chipotle powder.
- Let the chili simmer for several hours: The longer you simmer the chili, the more time the flavors have to develop. Aim for at least 4 hours, or even longer if you have the time.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Chili is the perfect comfort food, and it's even better when topped with your favorite fixings. Some popular options include shredded cheese, sour cream, diced onions, and crushed tortilla chips.
