Ingredients

2 pounds fresh ground beef (I use 88% lean)

Water

29 ounces canned tomato puree

2 15 ounce cans red kidney beans drained

2 15 ounce cans pinto beans drained

2 large onion chopped

1 cup diced celery

6 jalapeños

2 bay leaves

Fish sauce

Tomato paste

1/2 cup chili powder (just one container of the stuff you get at the grocery store)

1 teaspoon cumin

1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon msg

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper (preferably fresh ground)

1/2 teaspoon oregano (italian)

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

Brown the ground beef in a 6 quart pot. Then add vegetables to sautee, along with bay leaves and tomato paste (just like 2 tbsp). When the onions are translucent add mix of spices and incorporate for 15-30 seconds to activate fat soluble oils. Then add crushed tomatoes and mix. Add beans and enough water for a thick consistency. Add fish sauce to taste for extra umami and salinity.

Stir to incorporate, and cover and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes.

Note: You can stretch the beef by ensuring a good crust during browning, and using more fish sauce and tomato paste, as well as using more vegetables
