Chili Con Carne

This is a solidly good recipe for a very traditional chili con carne - that is, this is the recipe my husband I were raised on, and possibly you, too. I stuck to the recipe, and the kids just loved it (even though they generally eschew meat). We used the beef, not lamb (an option), omitted the cheese topping, and probably used twice as much wine (Cabernet). This made a large pot, and I'm looking forward to left-overs as one or two easy dinners this week.
