Chili

This recipe came from a church friend of Mama's. Mama  made this every year on the day I would arrive home from college for Thanksgiving break. I would walk in the front door with my bags and smell her chili cooking on the stove. It is a nice memory and her chili is the best! Daddy like to shred cheddar cheese to put on top and Chase puts a little bit of sour cream on the top of each bowl.
