- 1-3largejalapeno, diced
- 1/2headgarlic, crushed(about 6 large cloves)

- 3lbs cannedbeans(I used 1 can each of black beans, kidney beans and cannellini)
- 2 (14 1/2 ounce)cansdiced tomatoes
- 1cantomato paste
- 1cup strongred wine(I suggest a cabernet, or more, depending on how wet you like your chili)
- 1/4cupWorcestershire sauce
- 2tablespoonschili powder
- 2teaspoonscumin
- 1teaspooncoriander
- 1tablespoonoregano
- 2-4bay leaves, depending on size
- 1teaspoonallspice
DIRECTIONS
- You’re going to need a 5-6 qt crock pot or stock pot for this.
- Brown the meats in an iron skillet in separate batches, drain and add to crock pot.
- Add a little more oil to the skillet and saute all the veggies EXCEPT the green pepper.
- When the onion is clear, add all veggies to crock pot along with all remaining ingredients.
- Give it a stir and set the crock to high and cook 4 hours or low and cook 8 hours.
- Or just simmer on the stove until you’re happy with it.
- Season to taste.
- *Note:If you don’t want the veggies to be as noticeable (or you just want to hide them from your kids!), you could throw them in a food processor and I think they’d blend right in with the ground meat.
- I didn’t serve this with any cheese, but I’m thinking a nice sharp white one, like white cheddar or fontina would be REALLY nice.
