This recipe comes from Jack(ie). I like it. Lots of meat. And very little beans. I guess they are kinda a requirement to have a few to be able to call it a chili. Technicalities.
Stuff you will need:
3 lbs. hamburger
8 cans of diced stewed tomatoes with green peppers & onions 14.5 oz size
3 cans (use the 14.5 oz can) of water
1 can of chili hot beans (same size)
2 1/2 packages of chili seasoning mix (can use a combination of one hot, one mild... whatever you like)
3-4 tsp of celery seed
3-4 tsp of mustard seed
Chili Powder to taste. Adds heat and flavor
* You are going to have to play with the amounts of most of the above ingredients. Some people like a little more soupy chili. Use more water. Some like it with more beans (Yuk). Use more beans. You get the idea.
--Brown your hamburger.
--Get a big ol' pot. Put the rest of the stuff in the pot and let the bad boy cook on a low simmer for a few hours. Make sure to give it a stir every once in a while and a taste. Add things as you like them. If it looks too watery for your taste let it cook with the lid off. If you want more water... well.... you know.
