Recipe of the Week: Duncan's Silly Chile

Here's a hearty plate for the hungry bachelor. Be sure not to leave out any of the ingredients.

Duncan's Silly Chile:

2 cans kidney beans
1 large can stewed tomatos
1 diced ham steak
1/2 lb. bacon, chopped, cooked but not drained
4 pepperoni sticks
1 kg. ground beef, braised
2 large onions, diced
1 green pepper, diced
some garlics, smashed
1 can V8 juice
4 oxo cubes for stock
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
some chile seeds/flakes and chile powder

Try to use fresh if possible - I don't like canned stuff - just for convenience.
Put all this in the biggest crock pot/slow cooker you can find - a 7-Quarter would be great.

I leave the seasoning to my readers' discretion. You are free to add as much or as little garlic and chile as you can tolerate! Again, use freshly chopped Serrano or Habanero peppers, if you can find them.

Combine and slow cook. Not much more to say.
