    Should'a known before I opened this. :rofl:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Actually, it looks like a mighty tasty stew. Whatever you call it, I'll bet your dad appreciated it!

    good, and too easy with a crock pot.  tomatos, peppers, and arthritist dont go well together so i know he is in pain today, but he wanted it for the game. its loaded up with cayennes out of the garden so it has some heat.  to bad the scorpions and ghosts arent ripe

    Check out this recipe if you like hot. My wife got sick of me making it so often last fall/winter. Good bite and flavor:

    As soon as I read, "dad wanted real chili with beans", I knew all the Texans were going to come for you, lol.  It does look tasty, though, I too would skip the beans.
    It's "Smokin Gal", not "Smoking Al".
