- 2. Remove beef with slotted spoon into big pot. Leave drippings in saute pan; add bacon grease.

- 10. After that hour, now add beans and beer. Stir, cover and let simmer on very low heat for 30 minutes.
- 11. Turn off heat, uncover and stir, break up some more tomatoes, and then cover it back up and let it sit, covered, for at least 30 minutes before serving. Top with shredded cheese and scallions when serving.
