Super bowl chili

Here is a basic coarse ground beef and red bean chili that I make often for my friends that like chili. Other ingredients can be added to make different variation's, options are endless using different beans, meats and seasonings. Great to make in a huge quantity for a crowd and to freeze for future meals.
