Ingredients
  • 1 pound spaghetti
  • Salt
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
  • 3 slices smoky bacon, chopped
  • 1 pound ground sirloin
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce (eyeball it)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (eyeball it)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder (a palmful)
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cumin (half a palmful)
  • 1/2 bottle pale beer (eyeball it)
  • 1 can, 14 ounces chopped or crushed fire-roasted tomatoes
  • 1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup pickled jalapeƱos, finely chopped
  • 4 scallions, chopped

Directions
  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt, then the pasta and cook spaghetti until al dente according to package directions.
  2. Heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add EVOO and bacon. Brown and crisp bacon, about 5 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate and reserve. Drain off a little excess fat if necessary but leave just enough to coat the bottom of the skillet. Add the sirloin and crumble it with a wooden spoon as it browns, 3-4 minutes. Add the onions and garlic, and season with salt, pepper, hot sauce, Worcestershire, chili powder and cumin.
  3. Cook for another 5-6 minutes. Add the beer, cook for 1 minute more then add tomatoes and tomato sauce. Bring up to a bubble and continue to cook for 5 minutes.
  4. While the meat sauce is cooking, make the cheese sauce: Heat a small sauce pot over medium heat and add butter. When the butter melts, stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken stock and then the milk. Thicken for 2 minutes then stir in the cheese and melt, for another 2 minutes. Stir in the jalapenos and scallions. Season with a little salt and pepper
  5. Drain spaghetti, add to the meat sauce and combine.
  6. Pour into a large serving bowl and pour the cheddar cheese sauce over the top.
