4 cloves garlic, chopped real fine
2 (10 oz.) cans red chili sauce (Las Palmas)

1 tsp. pepper
2 tbsp. cumin powder
1 tbsp. oregano

1 lg. can red kidney beansRecipe
In the bacon fat, gently brown garlic and onions until nice and tender. In another pan, brown you meats making sure to stir constantly, breaking it down to a fine consistency, real fine. Drain every bit of fat from the meat and combine all the ingredients in one big chili pot. Stir this often, breaking up the tomatoes and allowing the liquid to simmer down to the level of the meat. A little beer added to your chili never hurts and you might have some yourself as your chili simmers for 2 hours. Taste occasionally and add seasoning or anything else that strikes your fancy, after some beers. Serve over red kidney beans, along with saltine crackers, chopped onion and grated Cheddar cheese. Red kidney beans, optional. Serves 8 to 10.
