Johnny Cash's Old Iron Pot Chili

JOHNNY CASH'S OLD IRON POT CHILI

5 pounds sirloin steak, chopped
shortening (try 1/2 tbsp)
3 packages McCormick's chili seasoning
3 to 4 15 oz cans red kidney beans
cumin
thyme
sage leaves
garlic powder
onion powder
salt to taste
chopped onions
chopped chili peppers
1 4 oz can tomato paste
2 tbsp sugar
chili powder
Spice Island chili con carne seasoning

Brown steak with shortening until medium.  Add chili seasoning and cook for 5 minutes.  Add beans, tomatoes, spices, chili peppers, sugar, chili powder and/or chili con carne seasoning.  Taste.  If chili is too hot, add one or two cans tomatoes.  Add tomato paste.  If chili seems too thick, add water.  Simmer on low for 20 minutes.  Serve with soda crackers and soda.

Tip:  This chili will be better tomorrow than today.  You must guess the amounts I use.  I never measure them.
