List of Ingredients




5 lb. sirloin steak
3 pkg. McCormicks, Schilling, Lawry's or any good chili seasoning mix
Mexene Chili Powder
Spice Island Chili Con Carne seasoning
Cumin
Thyme
Sage leaves
Chopped raw onions
Chopped chili peppers
3 or 4 cans red kidney beans
3 or 4 cans whole tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
Garlic powder

2 tbsp. sugar
Salt to taste

Recipe



Chop steak and cook until medium with a little shortening added. Add packages of chili seasoning mix and cook 5 minutes. Add beans, tomatoes, spices, raw onions, sugar and chili powder and-or chili con carne mix. Taste, If chili is too hot for the children or ladies, add 1 or 2 cans of tomatoes. Add tomato paste. If it gets too thick, add water. Simmer low for 20 minutes. Serves with soda crackers and Pepsi or Coke. This will serve 12 people 3 helpings each.

You must guess at the amount to use. I do not measure them.

Note from John: Johnny Cash's "Old Iron Pot" Family Style Chili will be better tomorrow than today if properly taken care of overnight!

This recipe has never been given to anyone. Many people have asked for it, but he has never given them the true ingredients. (He has been known to substitute things like snake meat and such for the steak.) When his mother asked him for the recipe for her book, he finally consented, and he guarantees that this is the recipe he uses.
