Mike's 12 hour Chili



Mike’s 12 hour Chili. This one has ALL the flavor with none of the heat. I think the person eating it should be the one that adds his or own level of heat. This has a little hint of sweet and none of that bitter taste. 1-2 lbs of stewing beef cut in to smaller cubes and then browned with a little olive oil and minced garlic then some black pepper tossed in then drained. 1 small jar of MILD salsa, 2 cans of red kidney beans drained, ½ lb un cooked brown rice, 1 28oz can of diced tomatoes, 1 15oz can of tomato sauce, 1tbl of ground cumin, 1/2tbl of sea salt, 2tbl minced garlic, a shake or two of black pepper, 3tbl of chili powder, 1 onion chopped, 1 red pepper chopped, 1 green pepper chopped, 2 to 3 cups of water and 3 large squares of dark chocolate. Mix all in slow cooker and put on low for 12 hours. The dark chocolate is to help kill the acidity in the tomato items, and adds a tinny bit of sweet to it.
