Now that our taste buds are tantalized with the origins of this delicious stuff called chili, let’s get in the kitchen & get cookin’!
Ingredients:

- 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoon cumin (my personal favorite)
- 1/4 cup chili powder
What’s Next:
In a large, deep skillet- cook ground beef on medium-high until evenly browned. Drain meat & set aside.
In a large pot- combine cooked ground beef, tomato juice, tomato sauce, kidney beans, pinto beans, green & red bell peppers, cayenne pepper, sugar, oregano, black pepper, salt, cumin & chili powder. Bring to a boil on high heat.
Once mixture in boiling, reduce to a low simmer. Cover & simmer for 1 - 2 hours, stirring occasionally & adding water if needed.
Now you are ready to enjoy a fine chili, maybe with some homemade corn bread muffins. Enjoy!
