If I've got an hour to let it simmer, I'm cutting up a couple pounds of fresh tomatoes, pulling the guts out; chopping a sweet Vidalia onion, half a carrot, a few white ends of green onions or leeks, six cloves of garlic and six cloves of roasted garlic and browning in the bottom of my big chili pot; dumping in some oregano, basil, habenero chili powder. Let it simmer while I brown two hot italian sausages with 1/2 lb of super lean ground beef. Toss in 1/4 t of sugar, stir well, then dump in the meat and let it continue to simmer.
For a variation, I mince a serrano pepper, quarter each of orange, yellow, and green peppers, and use no meat or some chicken sausage. Super easy.
