This is a chili that earns its depth. Applewood smoked bacon and leek greens build a savory, aromatic base, while a generous hand with cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder does the heavy lifting on flavor. A splash of beer deglazes everything beautifully, and two sneaky Parmesan rinds simmer away in the background, adding a quiet, rich umami that most people can't quite place but everyone notices. Butter beans bring a creamy, hearty texture that sets this apart from your standard bowl — rustic, smoky, and just a little unexpected.
