Chili

Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground Hamburger
• 1 whole Large Onion
• 1 whole Green Pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 4 cans (15 Oz. Can) Beans
• 1 can (16 Oz. Can) Tomato Sauce
• 1 can (28 Oz. Can) Crushed Tomatoes
• 4 Tablespoons Ground Cumin
• 4 Tablespoons Ground Chili
• 1 teaspoon Mexican Oregano
• 3-½ Tablespoons Lime Juice
• 1-½ teaspoon Concentrated Liquid Smoke
• ¼ teaspoons Marjoram
• ¼ teaspoons Thyme
• ½ teaspoons Ground Chipotle (To Taste)

Preparation Instructions

Cook and drain hamburger. Add onion (diced) and green pepper (diced) and cook until soft. Add garlic (minced) and cook for 2-3 minutes. In a crock pot or stock pot, add the beans (drained and rinsed), crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and remaining ingredients. Add the hamburger/onion/pepper mixture and stir until well blended.

Cook until hot enough to eat, and beans are softened.

Notes:

You can, of course, add as much onion, pepper, and garlic as you want.

I usually use 2 cans of black beans with 1 can of pinto beans and 1 can of kidney beans, but mix and match how you like it.
