Andy's Three Meat 🐮 Chili 🐷

One of Andy's specialties is his three meat chili. It's not spicy hot but it's very meaty, simple and flavorful. And the stew meat? It's so tender it melts in your mouth. For some reason, when we fix a soup or stew, we have to make enough to feed Cox's army. That works out just fine for us because I love eating a chili dog, making Frito chili pies or vacuum sealing for a night when we don't feel like cooking.


INGREDIENTS:
2 lbs. stew meat
2 lbs. ground beef
1 lb. sausage
2 onions chopped
46 oz. can tomato juice (will use over half the can or more)
3 jars of homegrown canned tomatoes (store bought if you have to)
1 can of tomato paste
2 cans of pinto beans drained
Lot of chili powder (see picture)

In a large pot, brown the meat and cook the onions until meat is browned and onions are tender. Drain the fat.

Add the stewed tomatoes

Add the chili powder. Yes, he uses a lot! He measures by eye.

Add the pinto beans and stir well.

Add about one half of the can of tomato juice. Let it cook at a medium boil for about thirty minutes.
At this point add more tomato juice or tomato paste if it needs thickening up a little. Let simmer until you're ready to eat.
