My DH loves this chili and will eat the leftovers for almost a week.
Mike's Favorite Chili
1 lb (or more) Ground Beef, browned with fat strained off
2 40oz cans pinto beans, drained
1 28oz Petite Diced Tomatoes, drained
1 28oz Crushed Tomatoes (I use the one with basil in it)
2 Jalapeño peppers De-seeded, deveined and coarsely chopped
1 Med Onion chopped
4-5 chopped garlic cloves (more or less depending on your taste, we like more)
2 tsp crushed dried red peppers
4-6 tbl chili powder
2 tsp cumin
Combine in large Crockpot and cook for 4+ hrs on high.
Top with grated cheese (and chopped onion if you like this, we don't)
I either serve this with rice or cornbread.
DH loves to mix the rice in and then put the cheese on top.
Note: I would recommend wearing plastic food service gloves while slicing and chopping the jalapeños and onions. Jalapeño and onion juice can really make your eyes burn if you rub them, even after washing your hands!
It can make your nose burn too!
