Sweet and Spicy Chili

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Cook: 2-1/2 hours YIELD: 13 servings (1 cup each).
This recipe for sweet and spicy chili is the result of much experimenting. I knew I had perfected it when my husband took a pot to work, where one guy ate five bowls himself!

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
