Alright everyone… don’t get scared after seeing all those ingredients! All your doing is putting them all in the pot, nothing special! In a very large pot over high heat brown you meat. Once that is browned take the meat out with a slotted spoon and put on a plate and put aside. Turn the heat down to medium.You’re gonna have a bunch of grease in there and thats no good, so here’s my secret. Take a couple of sheets of paper towels and soak up all but about a tablespoon of that grease. Easy clean up too because all you have to do is throw them away! Add the celery, onions, bell pepper, garlic, and jalapeno. Let cook for about 5 minutes and add the tomato paste. Stir the vegetables in the tomato paste until everything is all mixed together. Let cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often so it doesn’t burn. To the veggies add the browned meat and stir everything to mix together. Now it’s time for the spices! Add all those suckers to the pot and stir to combine. To the pot add the beans, the whole tomatoes, and the beef broth. With your spoon crush up those tomatoes as good as you can. I like the tomato chunks in there! After that, let cook for about 25 minutes. To serve just add sour cream, cheese, and some scallions. Perfect for those cold days!
