Headley Hill Chili

I used to make this for my family (they are gone).

1 pound low-fat ground beef

1 pound Purnell’s Old Folks Sausage

Onions, bell peppers, canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, red beans, TBS cornmeal.

Chili powder (not mix, straight chili), salt, black pepper, oregano, basil, garlic—all to taste.

Brown meat and simmer everything a while.

I keep cooked spaghetti on hand for those who like it Ohio Valley Style.

Serve with johnnycake or cornbread. Hot sauce ready for hotheads.

Brown beer pairs well but it’s your thirst.
