Dad's Chili

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 16

Ingredients:

3 lbs. Ground Chuck
1 Cup Red Wine (dry)
1 Tbsp Minced Onions
2 Tbsp Chili Powder
3 Tbsp Chili-O Seasoning
1 Tbsp Mexican Style Chili Powder
1 - 3 lb glass jar of Prego Traditional
1 - 27 oz can (or 2- 16 oz cans) Bush’s Chili Beans
1 - 14.5 oz jar Del Monte Garden Select Petite Diced Tomatoes
1 bottle (7oz) Taco Sauce (Pico Pica brand found at Food Lion)

Directions:

Brown the Ground Chuck, Chili-O & Taco Sauce in a large frying pan. Place Ground Chuck and stir in remaining ingredients in a Crock Pot on Low Heat. A pot on the stove will work, but a Crock Pot is preferred. Allow the Chili to simmer 4 – 8 hours. You can vary the chili powder amount for your spiciness level. This Chili is great by itself, but our family enjoys Penne/Rigatoni Pasta, a side of Cole Slaw, a RC Cola or Cherry–Lemon Sundrop. After serving, save the rest and the flavor is even better the next day!
