Recipe



Shake meat in flour and brown in oil; place in crock pot. Saute onions, garlic, carrot, apple and chilies in small amount of butter; place in crock pot. Add to crock pot: liquid, tomatoes, tomato sauce, parsley and oregano. Simmer beans separately in Dutch oven for 1 hour on low. You may refrigerate beans separately.

Cook meat, sauteed vegetables and liquid in crock pot on high for 3 hours or on low for 5 hours. Then 1 additional hour after adding strained beans (reserving liquid). If more liquid is needed add water from beans. If a thicker consistency is desired, remove 1 1/2 cups of beans and liquid and process in food processor and return to crock pot.
