Notes
- **I process the stewed tomatoes to remove the large pieces.
- I allow my chili to simmer until I can no longer detect any flavor from the cans. 30 minutes to several hours, whatever time you have.
- This chili can be simmered for several hours on top of the stove or in a slow cooker.
- Chili may be frozen in reclosable bags or airtight containers.
