INGREDIENTS
2 lb. ground round beef
1 lb. ground pork
5 cups chopped onions
1-1/2 tbsp. chopped garlic
7 tbsp. chili powder
2 cans chopped green chili peppers
3 cans (1 lb. each) crushed tomatoes
3 tbsp. tomato paste
4 bay leaves, crumbled
1 tbsp. salt
1 tbsp. oregano
1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 tbsp. brown sugar
2 cans (1 lb. each) red kidney beans
1 pkg. corn chips
1 head lettuce, shredded
12 oz. sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large, heavy pot, brown the meat with the onions and the garlic. Drain off the fat and stir in the chili powder (depending on quality, you may want more - we get real cool stuff up here in the north). Add chilies, tomatoes, tomato paste, bay leaves, salt, oregano, vinegar, and brown sugar. Cover the pot and cook for 2 hours over low heat. Add beans and cook, uncovered, 30 minutes more. Serve with side dishes of corn chips, shredded lettuce, and shredded Cheddar cheese.
CHEF COMMENTS
I had this when visiting friends in N'awlins. He didn't know the source of the recipe, but this was sure passable chili.

So rich and meaty. When I made it, I felt compelled to add lots of green peppers, mushrooms and corn, and still the amount of meat in this sucker overwhelmed me.
