Slice the 'sausage' into chunks, set aside. There is probably a clear covering over the sausage. Remove that first then carefully slice.
In a large skillet, heat oil.
Add onion and 'sausage' and sauté for about 10 minutes.
Add the 'beef' and saute about 5 more minutes.
Add the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder.
Stir and cook 2 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, parsley, oregano, beer, salt and pepper.
Bring to a boil and then turn down to simmer.
Cook about 30 minutes until chili is a bit thicker.
At this point you can freeze for the future. Freeze without the beans.
To carry on - add the beans and heat through.
Ready to eat and relax.
