Instructions
Place chiles in medium bowl.
Pour enough boiling water over to cover. Soak until chiles soften, at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
Preheat oven to 350F. Saut bacon in heavy large oven-proof pot over medium-high heat until beginning to brown.
Add onions. Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle beef all over with coarse salt and pepper.
Add to pot; stir to coat. Set aside.
Drain chiles, reserving soaking liquid.
Add 1 cup soaking liquid, garlic, chili powder, cumin seeds, oregano, coriander, and 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt; blend to puree, adding more soaking liquid by 1/4 cupfuls if very thick.
Pour puree over brisket in pot.
Add tomatoes with juices, beer, green chiles, and cilantro stems. Stir to coat evenly.
Bring chili to simmer. Cover and place in oven. Cook 2 hours. Uncover and cook until beef is almost tender, about 1 hour.
Add squash; stir to coat. Roast uncovered until beef and squash are tender, adding more soaking liquid if needed to keep meat covered, about 45 minutes longer. Season chili to taste with salt and pepper. Tilt pot and spoon off any fat from surface of sauce. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cool 1 hour. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.
Garnishes:Set out garnishes in separate dishes. Rewarm chili over low heat. Ladle chili into bowls and serve.*Available at many supermarkets and at specialty foods stores and Latin markets.
Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Chili on the menu? Try pairing with Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. You could try Casteller Cava Rosado. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.
