INSTRUCTIONS
In a large pot bring the tomato puree and whole tomatoes to a slow
boil. While this is heating, brown the ground beef with chopped
onion. Add this to the tomato mixture. Add chili powder and simmer
for 1 hour. Add oregano, salt and pepper to taste and simmer for
another 15 minutes. Add kidney beans and simmer 30 minutes longer.
Serve in a bowl with Cheddar cheese on top and a dollop of sour cream
placed in the center. Diced onions complete the garnish.
Comments: Everybody knows there is no such thing as a 19-alarm fire.
Why, that would mean babies, lifeguards, bartenders, everyone would
have to show up to fight it! However, this recipe from the Chicago
Fire Department might actually require 19 alarms. If you don't know
what a No. 10 can is, figure on just under a gallon.
