Recipe



In a large Dutch oven, sauté ground chuck over medium heat. Cook 10 minutes or until meat has lost its raw color, stirring frequently to break up any clumps. Pour off and discard fat that has accumulated in pot. Add onions, celery, bell peppers and garlic. Sauté 5 minutes or until vegetables are translucent. Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, chili powder, brown sugar, beef stock, cumin, oregano, red pepper flakes, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 hour. Discard bay leaves before serving. Ladle chili atop cooked macaroni and garnish with cheese and noodles. The chow mein will resemble dry hay, giving the chili a scarecrow appearance.
