KC Cheesy Corn and Chili
Inspired by the cheesy corn Kansas City peeps eat alongside their BBQ, we present a delicious riff on KC chili. Ground pork, onion, zesty Black Beans, and roasted corn simmer in a combination of KC BBQ sauce and Pale Ale and mix with melting mozzarella, cheddar, and Monterey jack cheeses. Garnish with more cheese, bacon bits, and green onion.

- Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes or until onions are translucent.
- Stir in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Deglaze the pan pale ale and cook until liquid is reduced by half.
