Lyle'S Chili Con Carne

• 1 1/2 lb. ground beef
• 1/2 lb. ground pork
• 3 medium onions, chopped
• 1/4 c. celery, chopped
• 1 (No. 303) can kidney, red or chili beans
• 2 (No. 303) cans tomatoes
• 1 heaping Tbsp. chili powder per lb. meat
• 8 oz. tomato sauce
• 2 tsp. salt
• pinch of ground cumin (comino; use with caution)
• cayenne pepper to taste

1. Stir and brown off meat in skillet or open saucepan; drain off any fat or water that renders out.
2. Add onions and celery to the meat and stir.
3. Cook until the vegetables are clear.
4. In a pot, add all the ingredients together; cover and cook over low heat, the slower, the better (1 to 1 1/2 hours).
5. Perhaps it would be better for guests to add cayenne pepper to their taste when served. Serves about 8.
