Chili for a Crowd


Recipe from: Taste of Home
Servings: 20 to 24, about 6 quarts

Full of flavour with ground beef and smoked kielbasa with kidney and pinto or black beans. If you don't like spicy chili or you want more spicy just adjust the spices.

3 pounds ground beef
2 28 ounce cans diced tomatoes, undrained
4 15 to 16 ounce cans kidney, pinto and/or black beans, rinsed and drained
1 pound smoked kielbasa, sliced and halved
2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
2 8 ounce cans tomato sauce
⅔ cup hickory flavored barbecue sauce
1 ½ cups water
½ cup packed brown sugar
5 fresh banana peppers, seeded and sliced
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
1 teaspoon each dried oregano, thyme and sage
½ to 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced

In an 8 quart kettle or Dutch oven, cook beef over medium heat until beef is no longer pink; drain.

Add remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
