Smoky Barnyard Chili

"This rich and smoky chili has duck, pork and a chicken skin garnish, hence the name Barnyard Chili. The smoked Hatch Chile's, along with Black Box Pinot Noir, give a rich, depth of flavor to the dish. I always heard that beer pairs well with chili but after having Pinot Noir with it and in it, there is nothing better."
