Chili
Fall is here, and its an excellent time to make this old staple.
"3 cloves garlic" (you could substitute bottled, crushed garlic or leave out)
"4 lbs. ground round, cooked and drained" (or ground sirloin, don't use chuck!)
" 3 cans tomatoes (1 pound)
6 large onions
4 cans red kidney beans, drained" (if you're like me, you'll leave out the beans)
"3 dashes cayenne pepper (may we suggest Frank's Red Hot Sauce?...)
salt and pepper to taste
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil" (it can't hurt, but we always leave this ingredient out)
"4 large green peppers "(essential!)
"1 tsp. vinegar" (or use more Frank's!)
"1/4 cup chili powder
2 cans tomato paste
1 bay leaf"
We sometimes like to throw in a dash of Liquid Smoke.
You can also experiment with other herbs and spices like turmeric, mustard, sweet basil and so on. (Rosemary and nutmeg are not suggested).
Cook garlic in oil until golden. Crumble ground round in pieces and cook for ten minutes or until done. Remove meat and cook chopped onion and green pepper until tender. Combine all ingredients in a large pot (slow cooker). Cover and cook over low heat for several hours.

Don't forget to top off with fresh, diced white onions (preferably Vidalia, when in season).
We sometimes like to call this "bathroom chili".
