heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 to 45 minutes, adding water as
necessary.
Stir the crushed red chiles into the meat mixture. Brew the oregano
like tea in 1/2 cup warm beer (room temperature). Strain the
oregano-beer "tea" and stir the liquid into the pot. Discard the
oregano. Stir in the paprika, vinegar, 2 cups of beef broth, diced
chiles, tomatoes, and hot sauce. Simmer, uncovered, for 30 to 45
minutes longer. Stir often.
Dissolve the masa flour in the remaining 1 cup of broth. Stir it
into the pot and simmer, uncovered, 1/2 longer.
