Dad's Venison Chili

---

This is my dad's awesome chili recipe. he got a deer this year so i actually got to make it tonight with some ground venison he had given us. this one puts together quick, with just an onion and a pepper to dice, then waiting and enjoying that great smell. Deeeeee-licious!!

Steps

---

Brown the venison in a stock pot.

---

Add onion and pepper , saute until slightly soft , about 5-10 minutes.

---

Add remaining ingredients , cover , and simmer for 1.

---

5 hours.

---

I serve mine with a little sour cream and diced onion on top , and some crusty bread.

---

My husband insists this is sacrilege , and serves his with shredded cheese and crumbled crackers.

---

We agree that it is best served with an ice cold beer.
