This is my chili recipe that won our little manager's chili cook-off. It is VERY spicy with a nice slow burn. Can be made in a crock pot and simmered overnight or on the stove and finished in an hour.

Ingredients:

3 lbs chili-style ground beef

2 cups coarsely chopped onions

1 bunch fresh parsley, minced

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon salt

2 jalapenos, minced w/ seeds (or to taste)

4 red serranos, minced w/ seeds (or to taste)

2 cups bell peppers, chopped fine

2 celery ribs, chopped fine

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 cup beef bouillon granules

1/3 cup chili powder

1/2 cup paprika

1 tablespoon black pepper (or to taste)

1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)

1 1/2 tablespoons white pepper (or to taste)

2 teaspoons ground coriander

2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste

1 can refried beans

2 -4 cups water

Directions:

1. Brown meat with garlic, onion& salt in a large pot.
2. Add parsley, jalapeno& serranos.
3. Stir.
4. Add dried spices/boullion and stir well.
5. Mix in tomato paste and water.
6. Simmer for several minutes then stir in the can of refried beans (if there are any whole beans, run beans through a food processor or blender so none appear present in the chili).
7. Continue to simmer for 30-45 minutes.
