- I haven't made this in some time, as we haven't been eating
- meat for the last year and some. It makes a big pot of very
- meaty, spicy chili (You may find that you can make use of
- more than 8 kinds of peppers, but using fewer is discouraged!)

-
- 1 lb beef for stew
-
- 1 can Brooks hot-n-spicy chili beans
- 1 can (16 oz) tomatoes, drained and chopped
- 1 can (16 oz) tomato sauce
-
- 1 cup onion, chopped
- 3/4 cup green pepper, chopped
- 4-6 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1-3 jalapeno peppers, chopped
- 2-4 assorted hot peppers...banana, habanero, hungarian...
-
- spices: salt, pepper, chili powder, basil, oregano, paprika,
- white pepper, tabasco sauce, worcestershire sauce
-
- tortilla chips
- shredded cheddar cheese
- sour cream

-
- Cut beef into medium size chunks (about bite-size).
- Chop onion and peppers, crush garlic.
-
- (you may wish to leave a few of the peppers
- whole, or halved, just cleaning out the seeds)
-
- In a large pan (I use a dutch oven, about 6 qt) cook the beef,
- onion, peppers and garlic until beef is browned. Add 1/2 to 1
- Tbsp. worcestershire and tabasco to taste and cook until
- vegetables are tender.
-
- DO NOT DRAIN!
-
- Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, and beans. Add remaining spices
- to taste (about 1 tsp. each of basil, oregano, paprika), not
- too much salt!
-
- Reduce heat to low and cook, covered, 1-2 hours. Stir
- occasionally.
-
- (At this point, I put the base to our wok over the burner
- and set the pan on top to cook it very gently for a couple
- of hours. Your mileage may vary.)
-

-
- Serve with tortilla chips, and top each
- bowl with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar
- and a Tbsp. of sour cream.
-
- Enjoy!
