Insert the 4 mm slicing disc and arrange the peppers in the feed tube. Use medium pressure to slice; remove and reserve. Insert the metal blade and with the machine running, drop the garlic cloves down the small feed tube; process 5 seconds to chop. Scrape the work bowl and add the onions; pulse to chop,

10 times; remove and reserve. Use the metal blade and pulse to chop the drained canned tomatoes, 5 times; remove and reserve. Wipe the work bowl and blade dry with a paper towel. Add half the chilled beef cubes to the work bowl and pulse to chop

10 times; remove and reserve. Repeat with the remaining beef.

In an 8 or 9-quart Cuisinart® stockpot, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium heat. When hot, add the garlic and onions; cook until translucent, 3-5 minutes. Stir in the chili powder (to taste), ground cumin, oregano, and paprika. Cook over low heat until the spices are aromatic, 5-10 minutes. While the onion mixture is cooking, heat half the remaining oil over medium high heat in a Cuisinart® 12 inch nonstick skillet; when hot, add half the ground beef. Allow to brown on one side, then turn and break up, brown- ing completely; add to the stockpot with the onion mixture, and repeat with the remaining oil and ground beef. After adding all the browned beef to the stockpot, stir in the reserved peppers, chopped tomatoes and reserved juices, wine vinegar, salt, and tomato paste. Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover loosely and simmer for 2-3 hours, until the meat is tender. If serving immediately, stir in the drained beans and stir to heat through.

Like many stews, chili is best made a day ahead. Transfer to a glass or stainless container; cover and refrigerate. Reheat over low – medium heat and stir in the beans. Chili may be frozen.
