    Recipe Introduction


    Tin cans were developed in 1810 for Royal Navy rations, but they forgot to invent a can opener. For years, soldiers opened cans with bayonets or rifle fire. In 1824, the cans carried by Arctic explorer, William Perry, carried the instructions, "Cut round top with hammer and chisel". A can opener like we know today wasn't patented until 1870. It had a cutting wheel that rolled around the rim of the can. It was improved in 1924 when a feed wheel was added. This method was used for the first electric can openers that went on the market in 1931 - and that same basic design is still used today.

    Can-opener Chili

    This is a spicy but not hot meatless chili. It is very easy to make. Try adding some jalapeno peppers if you want a little heat.


    4¼ hours 10 min prep
    Change to: servings US Metric
    2 cans stewed tomatoes
    2 cans pork and beans (Discard fat pieces)
    2 cans black beans
    2 cans kidney beans
    1 onion, chopped
    3/4 cup barbecue sauce
    2 tablespoons yellow mustard
    2 tablespoons Mrs. Dash seasoning mix
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    2 tablespoons ground cumin
    3 cloves minced garlic

    Recipe



    Combine all ingredients in a crock pot.
    I prefer to drain and rinse the black beans and kidney beans.
    Stir and simmer on low at least 3-4 hours.
    This can also be simmered on the stovetop for 30 minutes.
