BigR's Santa Fe Style Chili - from Anni

Here is my husband's chlli recipie, it is very good :)
sounds harder to make than it actually is, lots of ingredients but many are just dump in a can of this or that.

1 pound ground meat, very low fat content
½ large Bermuda onion, finely chopped
½ red pepper fairly finely chopped
½ head garlic
2 Serrano peppers, seeded and finely chopped
1-2 Jalapenos finely chopped (prefer the pickled kind for less “green” taste)
½ bag of frozen corn
1 14 oz can of diced tomatoes
2 15 oz cans tomato sauce
2 14 oz cans Kidney beans
1 14 oz can black beans
2 tbs cumin
1.5-2 oz chili powder
1-2 tsp salt
2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp paprika
2 tbs brown sugar
2 caps of vinegar
5-6 grinds of black pepper

Grated cheese
Sour cream
Tortilla chips

Sweat chopped veggies (not beans or corn) in large skillet/chicken fryer.
Add spices, tomatoes, sauce and ground beef. Cook thoroughly (we usually cook the meat through first and drain it if needed, then the rest can just cook/simmer till hot or can stay on low most of the day).
In roaster or large pot put drained beans and corn and stir in sauce.
Add sour cream and cheese and enjoy with chips.
Makes 8-10 good size bowls
