Lose Your Scalp Chili
1 lb Lean ground beef1/2 C Water1 ea chopped yellow sweet onion4 ea Chopped celery ribs1/2 C Chopped green bell pepper15 oz Canned undrained whole tomatoes3 Tbs Chili powder1 Tbs Brown sugarIn a stock pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef. If the meat is too lean, add the water and some oil to the pan before browning. Add the onions, celery and green bell peppers, mixing them well with the meat. Add the tomatoes. Stir in the meat and pepper mixture, chili powder and brown sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer over low heat for 30 to 40 minutes when the fat will have risen to the top. Spoon off the fat. The longer it cooks the better it will taste. If you like your chili thick, remove the lid in the last 20 minutes. If you like it thin, add tomato juice
