Super Bowl Chili

This chili is HOT! Use less chili powder and peppers if you want it more mild.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 large onion
  • 1 large bell pepper, minced
  • 3 cans pinto beans (15 oz, each)
  • 2 cans diced tomatoes (28 oz, each)
  • 2 cans tomato sauce (16 oz, each)
  • 3 jalapeno peppers, minced optional
  • 1/2 cup chili powder
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 Tbsp sugar

Instructions
 

  • Cook and stir the beef, onion, and bell pepper in a large pot over medium heat until the beef is brown and onion and pepper are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain grease from beef.
  • Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, jalapenos (if using), chili powder, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and sugar. Bring mixture to a slow boil; cover and reduce heat. Simmer chili at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally so that is does not stick. This chili can be simmered for several hours; the longer you simmer, the more flavor you will get. Makes 20 servings. Enjoy!
  • Note: May be served over cooked pasta topped with cheddar cheese, chopped green onions and sour cream.
