Not Your Momma's Chili... (so much better)

Ingredients:

1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground chuck
1/4 lb chorizo
1 small onion chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pack mild chili mix
1/2 c water (you may want more)
1 can diced tomatoes with chipotle chilies (or rotel with spicy chilies)- not drained
1 can kidney beans- not drained
1 TB brown sugar

Directions:

Brown meats and add onions over medium heat. Stir in seasoning mix. Add remaining ingredients and cook for at least 6 minutes. (I like to add all my ingredients in a crock pot and cook on low for a few hours.)

Buttery Cameral Sauce

In a medium saucepan combine sugars, syrup and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil, about 5 – 6 minutes. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes. Stir in whipping cream. Pour into a jar and store in refrigerator. It will thicken when cold.
