Ingredients
Directions
Cook and stir bratwurst in 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and no longer pink inside, about 15 minutes. Drain excess grease.
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in a large, deep pot over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, jalapeños, and garlic; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Add bratwurst to the pot; stir in red beans, petite diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, tomato juice, sauerkraut, beer, chili powder, sugar, salt, black pepper, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, allspice, and oregano.
Bring chili mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer; stir in milk chocolate until melted and dissolved. Simmer for 5 hours, stirring occasionally.
