2day's recipe: It's Chili by George!!

Chili is one of my favorite things!  You can make it so many different ways.  It was about 58 degrees when I got this morning and one of the first thoughts I had was - chili time, baby!  Football season is back, yep its that time.  Although we should get into the high 80's today, I still think I should start sharing all the chili recipes I have with my friends.
This one is what I call a traditional chili.  Enjoy :-)

"Can be made on the stove or in the slow cooker. It's quick, easy and so good."
