Slow cooking gives beef brisket plenty of time to become meltingly tender in this rich brisket chilli recipe. Packed with black beans and peppers and served with golden, cheesy cornbread for scooping up every last spoonful, it's a great recipe for feeding a crowd. Prep the chilli a day ahead to allow enough time for the flavours to develop – it’s worth it.
