    JUDY'S AUSTERLITZ CHILI


    Source of Recipe


    the web

    List of Ingredients




    3 lb. kidney beans (Goya or
    Progresso)
    3 lb. lean ground meat
    chili powder (use a whole
    jar--yes!)
    bacon end (or 2 strips bacon)
    2 medium onions, chopped up
    2 cans Progresso peeled whole
    tomatoes
    Monterey Jack cheese
    scallions (to taste
    2 garlic cloves

    Recipe



    In a heavy iron kettle brown the bacon end in olive oil
    (just enough to cover the bottom of the pan). Add the chopped
    up onion. When onion is yellow, brown the meat. As you brown
    the meat, add chili powder and paprika. (If you use bacon,
    don't add any salt.) After meat is brown, add 2 big cloves of
    garlic, chopped up. Then add the tomatoes, then beans. Stir
    all together, then add more chili powder. (You should be
    almost through with the jar by now.) Set oven to 125 degrees and bake
    4 to 5 hours (or longer; doesn't matter). An hour or so before
    you eat, slice the Monterey Jack cheese thin and cover the
    surface with the slices. It will melt down. Chop scallions
    and serve in a bowl to be sprinkled by diners on their chili.
    Optional: You can also add Tabasco sauce,
    Worcestershire, etc. while chili is cooking. You can add a
    little more chili powder each time you stir.
