Hot and Hearty Ohio Chili Con Carne With Beans image

This chili is an adaptation of the chili my dad used to make... with the main difference being the octane level. While this chile is hot, it is not unbearable and the heat can be tempered by serving with fresh french baguettes or tortilla chips. This chili is hearty, dark, and spicy- perfect for watching football on those cold winter afternoons.
