   MMMMM---------------------OPTIONAL TOPPINGS--------------------------   
              Shredded cheddar cheese   
              Sliced jalapeno pepperS;   
              Seeded   
       
     Set oven @ 425oF/218oC.   
        
     Remove papery outer skin from garlic bulb, but do not   
     peel or separate the cloves. Cut off top of garlic bulb,   
     exposing individual cloves. Brush cut cloves with 1   
     teaspoon oil. Wrap in foil. Bake until cloves are soft,   
     30-35 minutes. Unwrap and cool slightly. Squeeze garlic   
     from skins; mash with a fork.   
        
     Meanwhile, in a large dry skillet over medium-high heat,   
     toast chiles on both sides until puffy, 3-6 minutes. (Do   
     not blacken.) Cool. Remove stems and seeds; coarsely   
     chop chilies. Place in a small bowl; cover with beer. Let   
     stand until softened, about 30 minutes.   
        
     In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over   
     medium-high heat. Brown beef in batches, adding   
     additional oil if needed; transfer to a 6-qt. slow   
     cooker. In the skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium   
     heat. Add onions; cook and stir until tender. Add to   
     beef.   
        
     Stir in the remaining ingredients, mashed garlic and   
     dried chilies mixture. Cover and cook on low 7-9 hours or   
     until meat is tender. If desired, serve with cheese and   
     jalapenos.   
        
     UDD NOTES: Lose the kidley beenz in favour of a 48 oz   
     can og Brooks Chilli Hot beans; unrinsed. Or 4 16 oz   
     cans of Bush's Chilli Beans. Up the chilli sppice mix to   
     one TB per poun d of meat. And consider making the diced   
     tomatoes w/green chilies. Some cumin (1 tb or more) would   
     not go amiss.
