The first time I made this delicious chili was about 30 years ago.ย  Never measured ingredients… until I decided to share the recipe with you.ย  I got busy measuring before cooking!

Whenever I serve it to friends and family, it disappears quickly.ย  Never a drop left!ย  Quick and easy to make with a few ingredients.ย  Makes the whole house smell good while it simmers.ย  Ready in less than one hour.

 

This recipe can be prepared in a large skillet or in one pot.ย  I cooked all ingredients in my pretty blue dutch oven provided by Lodge Manufacturing.

Enjoy!
