Campfire Chili

1 pound hamburger
1 large onion
1 large tomato
1 16 oz can black beans
1 16 oz can red kidney beans
1 red bell pepper
3 shakes crushed red pepper
3 splashes jalapeno sauce
garlic to taste

Warm the Dutch oven on a grate over a hot fire (more coals than flame). Pour just enough of your favorite oil to coat the bottom of the pot.
Saut? the onions, tomato and bell pepper, stirring as needed until they start to soften.
Add the hamburger and mix well; cover and allow the hamburger to brown.
Add both cans of beans, the jalapeno sauce, the garlic and the crushed red pepper; mix well and cover again.
Stirring frequently allows you to monitor the texture.

If the fire is too hot the chili may thicken too much. Add a little water if needed but be careful not to make it too watery.
Serves 3 -4
