Add the onions, garlic, red bell pepper, salt, pepper, chilli spice, ground cumin and bay leaf. Cook, stirring frequently, for 3-4 minutes, until the veggies start to get tender. Add the beer and continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes. Add leftover gravy and black beans and bring up to a simmer. Add the cooked pork and cook to heat the pieces through, just a couple of minutes. Serve the chilli in bowls. Top with some of the crushed tortillas, lime zest and a dollop of sour cream. Makes 4 servings * UDD notes: Use a beer you like. Put a cup in the dish and quaff the balance. I usually skip the lime zest. I've also used shredded yellow cheese and diced raw onion as garnishes -- to good effect.
