Ingredients

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, Chopped
2 whole Sweet Onions, Diced
2 whole Red Chilies, Thinly Sliced
1 cup Other Various Chopped And Seeded Peppers
1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
1 cube Beef Bouillon
1 teaspoon Cumin
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
2 pounds Ground Beef
16 ounces, weight Crushed Tomatoes
1 can Tomato Paste, 6 Oz
1-1/2 pound Fresh Tomatoes, Diced
2 whole Bay Leaves
4 cups Beans Cooked And Drained (I Used Homemade Great Northen And Pink Mixed, But Canned Would Work)
Salt And Pepper, to taste

Directions

1

Add the olive oil to a large sauce pan and heat. Saute the garlic and onion in the oil until they start to soften.
2

Add the red chillies and 1 cup of chopped, seeded various peppers and cook for 2 minutes.
3

Add the chili powder, beef bouillon, cumin, and Worcestershire sauce and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring well.
4

Add the ground beef and brown.
5

Now add all the other ingredients, stir and season with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, turn the heat down low, cover and cook for an hour, stirring occasionally.
6

You can also put it in your crock pot to simmer. Don't forget to remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve with Fritos and cheese or cornbread or over a baked potato or turn it into chili mac. So many possibilities!

I think this tastes better after leaving for a day or two. It freezes well and keeps well in the fridge.

I left this pretty mild so our two young boys would eat it. If you like heat, add more red chilies!
