1 large onion - chopped
1 green bell pepper - chopped
1 red bell pepper - chopped
4 cloves of garlic - chopped
3 10oz cans of Ro-Tel diced tomatoes w/chilies
3 15oz cans of kidney beans. You can substitute with pinto and black beans but I always have at least two cans of Kidneys. I'll also rinse two of the cans just to remove some of the salt.
6 tblspn of chili powder
2 tspn of cumin
1 tspn of oregano
1 tspn of salt
1/2 tspn of black pepper
1/2 tspn of cayenne pepper (or as much as you like)
Brown all the meat in a skillet. Add in the chopped fresh veggies. Once that's cooked throw it into a crock pot.
Add in the Ro-Tel tomatoes and spices. Cook on low for 8 hours. I usually don't add in the beans until about halfway through just so they don't cook down to mush.
Stir once in awhile. If it's too thick you can add a bit of water.
Top with grated Mexican cheese and sour cream and enjoy!

Good morning everyone. A little cool this morning.
Nothing but heartfelt thanks for this K. The recipe is almost identical to my DH's. He does not eat pork and he only uses kidney beans. But as to the rest, very close. I do have to threaten him not to make it too hot -- he loves the "heat" and sometimes overdoes it with the cayenne. Invariably if I complain he'll say "It's not hot" or "I only used a little pinch".
