Grandma Keller's Chili

(I always turn to this exact recipe EVERY TIME I make chili.)

2 med. cans crushed tomatoes

2 med. cans stewed tomatoes

1 large can tomato puree

2 med. cans Hot Chili beans

2 lbs. ground round steak (not ground beef)

1 large onion, sliced thin and separated

4 T. chili powder

2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. black pepper

1 tsp. garlic powder

Put first 4 ingredients into large pot on medium heat. Crumble and brown ground round, along with sliced onions, in a large skillet. Add the remainder of ingredients to the meat/onion mixture. (VERY IMPORTANT, add ALL the seasonings to the meat mixture, not the tomato mixture.) When meat is well browned, add to the tomato mixture in the large pot. Mix well and cook on LOW for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Serves 6...enjoy!
