What you’ll need,
1 rack of cooked BBQ spare ribs ( I now always cook one extra slab so I have one in the freezer just for Chili)
I pound pork chorizo
2 cans black beans (Or make your own, you’ll need a couple/few cups).
1 Onion chopped
2 Jalapenos chopped
1 Bell pepper chopped
1 Tbs Cumin
1 Tsp salt
1 bottle of your favorite brew
Simmer the Ribs in about 3 quarts of water + the bottle of beer in a large stockpot until meat is fallin off the bones. (About 3 hours)
Pull the Pork out, de-bone / shred and put to side.
Bring the liquid up to a slight boil
Make meatballs about ¾ of an inch in size with the chorizo and drop in the boiling pot, drop it back down to a simmer and let cook for about 15 minutes.
Pull the meatballs out and set aside.
Let the liquid in the pot cool for a bit, then pull off as much of the fat floating on the top as you can. (Chorizo packs a lot of fat)
In another stock pot, sauté the onion, jalapeno and bell pepper until just done.
Add cumin and salt, continue to sauté for a few minutes.
Add the reserve liquid, pork, chorizo balls and black beans.
and Voila, the best chili ever made. (By me anyways =)

That sounds really awesome.
It reminds me of the time I used pork tenderloin to create a shredded pork concoction which I ultimately used in burritos. The point I'm trying to make is that I could have achieved the same thing with a much cheaper cut of meat. Smoke up a pork roast or butt and use that instead of your ribs. It's cheaper and you'll have a lot more meat.
