Five Star Chili




FIVE STAR CHILI - Thats what one of the boys came to me after dinner and said. Guess we have been watching too many Netflix movies and rating them : )

This recipe came from the Southern Living Homestyle Cooking. It is called Chili Dog Sauce but its chili as far as we are concerned.

2# ground beef
1 med onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons chili powder (we used 2 and it still had a big bang)
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp salt
1 tablespoon pepper
2 cups tomato juice (I used 2 15oz cans tom sauce and 1 can water)

Cook ground beef and onion over medium high heat until beef is browned, stirring until it crumbles. Drain well.

Add garlic, chili powder and ground cumin; cook 3 minutes stirring constantly. Add ground ginger and remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, 30 minutes or until thickened. Serve hot over rice or Fritoes (or both).
