Beans o' Fire

By David Sweet, About.com

A camping recipe from Rodney Jordan. The ingredients in this recipe may be varied somewhat. Nothing is ever really set in stone, is it? The flavor comes primarily from the sausage. It is not very hot. If you want some heat, use a hot chili seasoning with Jalapeno peppers instead of the banana peppers. Good eating.

Prep Time: 4 hours

Ingredients:

  • dry beans, kidney, white and pinto
  • 1 1/2 pounds hamburger
  • 1 pound hot sausage
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • hot banana peppers, diced
  • powdered garlic, to taste
  • Lawreys Seasoning Salt
  • 2 packs chili seasoning, (hot, mild, or regular)
  • water

Preparation:

I like to use a cast-iron Dutch oven to do my chili. Pour in the beans with water. Boil for 30 minutes. Simmer until soft (about 3 hours). Brown sausage and hamburger. Dice green pepper, onion, and banana peppers. Once the beans are fairly soft, add the banana peppers, green peppers, onion, sausage, hamburger, garlic, seasoning salt, 2 chili seasoning packets, and some more water. Allow to simmer for about 30 minutes. Eat.

Servings: 8
Preparation time: 4 hours
