Chili con carne:
1lb round steak or equivalent, cut into 1/2"-3/4" chunks (roughly) - get rid of fat
1lb ground beef
1/2lb ground pork
1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet chili seasoning
1 can mild green chilies
2 cans chopped jalapenos
1 jar hot salsa
1 can diced tomatoes with jalapenos
10 fresh medium tomatoes, cut 8 into 1" chunks (roughly) and dice the remaining 2.
1 medium onion, diced
1 beer
Chili powder, cumin powder
2 cans kidney beans, 2 cans pinto beans, 1 can black beans - rinsed in colander
 
Brown the pork, drain off fat, set pork aside, re-use pot.
Sweat the onions (translucent) - then set aside with the pork.
Brown the beef chunks on high heat. Drain the water.
Add the ground beef and brown it too.  Add the pork and onion back in.
Pour in a good beer.
Mix in seasoning packets, jalapenos and green chilies (drain jalapenos if any vinegar)
Toss in your can of tomatoes w chilies (Rotel, for example) and the jar of hot salsa
Add the 8 chunky fresh tomatoes.
Reduce heat to simmer uncovered and stir from time to time to avoid any bottom burn.
Tomatoes will stew, liquid will increase and then slowly reduce through steam
(I simmer two hours, typical)
Toward the end, add the 2 diced tomatoes and the beans
Add chili powder, cumin, habanero sauce, whatever strikes your fancy
