It's Cold Out There - Chili Will Help

A little something to case the cold away

1 lb ground burger
2 or 3 Sausages
1.5 red onions (diced)
2 cans crushed tomatoes
2-3 hot peppers ( depending on type ) - or good hot sauce
2 Red or yellow bell peppers, cored and cut into quarters
3 whole carrots, peeled and cut into 1in lengths
I can red or black beans (Goya)
Beer
cumin, S&P

Strain beans well and hold

Heat oven to 450 - put a skillet or roasting pan in the oven to heat with some olive oil in it.
Once hot, add the bell peepers and carrots to roast (10 - 15min) a little char is good.
Remove, cool and dice.

In another pot, heat some oil and brown the burger & sausage, remove and set into a bowl.
In the same pot add the onions and cook in the rendered fat till tender

Add Beans and meat to the onions. Add the Crushed tomatoes and the browned bell peppers and carrots

Add the hot peppers (or sauce) and let it simmer together.
