Dice and saute first 5 ingredients. Add meat and brown. Add everything
else, including 1/2 can beer. (Drink the remainder, according to Annie).
Add water JUST TO COVER TOP. Cook about 3 hours on low heat. Stir often.
Remove bay leaves. Couple of notes: Better the 2nd day, if you can wait
that long. Also, those I substitute pure New Mexico ground red chili.
Whatever you use make sure it's pure chili powder, no additional seasonings
added. formatted for Mm by Norma Wrenn npxr56b Use it if it looks good. I
hope to get my personal recipe up soon.
