20 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 mediums Onions, chopped fine
2 mediums Bell peppers, chopped fine
3 eaches Celery stalks, chopped fine
8 pounds Sirloin beef, coarsely ground
2 eaches # 2 cans stewed tomatoes
3 eaches Cloves garlic, chopped fine
1 each Bottles Gerbhardt Chili powder, 3 oz. size
2 ounces Green chili salsa
Sprinkling of oregano
3 tablespoons Salt
1 each Hot green chili
Garlic salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
4 eaches Lrg cans Vista Pinto Beans, if desired

Directions

Heat 1 tbsp oil, add onions, bell peppers and celery and cook until transparent. Add beef and brown thoroughly, stirring often. Drain off excess grease. Add tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, tomato paste (to thicken), and two tomato sauce cans water. Add chili powder, and stir thoroughly.

Add salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, and stir. Add chili sauce and hot green chili and stir. Simmer on low heat for 5 to 6 hours. If chili begins to stick, add water, stir often.

You may cut down cooking time, but, the longer you let it simmer, the better the chili will be.

Some people will tell you if you cook with beans it is not chili. For those people I say.....You cook chili your way and I'll cook mine my way (VBGrrrriiiiiiiinnnnnnnnn). If you want to add beans to this recipe, do so, I prefer the Sun Vista Pinto Beans.

Served with homemade bread or French bread and salad makes for a complete meal. This recipe will serve approximately 20 persons.
