1 can Brooks hot chili beans
1 can tomato sauce
1/2 can water
1/2 onion (medium sized, chopped and diced)
1 tomato, chopped and diced
1 tomato (pulverized)
Crushed dried red peppers
1/2 lb. beef (or 1/2 lb. chicken)
1/2 lb. spiced pork sausage

Brown meat; drain grease. Mix in beans, tomato sauce and water (medium heat). Dice onion, tomatoes and add to mixture. Add approximately a handful of crushed dried red peppers. It is possible to serve once it has boiled for 5 to 10 minutes; however, it thickens and tastes much better if you allow it to simmer for 1-1/2 hours. Stir occasionally. Add water when necessary. Optional ingredients macaroni noodles, spaghetti noodles. Goes great with peanut butter on ritz crackers.
