Chili Recipe

What you're gonna need:

1 lb. ground beef.

1 lb. Jimmy Dean sage sausage.

2 med yellow onions, diced

2 jalapeno peppers, minced

3 poblano peppers, roasted, de-skinned, chopped

28 oz. diced stewed tomatoes (one big can)

12 oz. tomato paste (one big or two little cans)

29 oz. tomato sauce (one big can)

48 oz. Bush's med chili beans (these are pintos) (3 cans)

27 oz. red kidney beans (one big can)

4 tablespoons of your favorite chili powder

3 tablespoons of ground cumin

salt to taste.

Roast the peppers first!  I put them on the top rack set to broil until the skin is black.  Set them aside to cool while you do the rest of the chopping.

In a stock pot saute the onions until clear, add meat, onion, chili powder, cumin and peppers.

When the meat is cooked, dump in the tomatoes beans.

Bring to a bit of a bubble, I think that called "simmer".

Put in bowl and eat!  I like oyster crackers best but you can add cheese and chopped onions to your heart's content.
