INGREDIENTS:

- 4 can Tomato Sauce
- 1 Habanero Pepper, Coarsely Chopped
- 2 Seranno Pepper, Coarsely Chopped
- 2 Jalapeno Pepper, Coarsely Chopped
- 2 Anaheim Pepper, Coarsely Chopped
- 2 Poblano Pepper, Coarsely Chopped
- 5 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1 Onion, Chopped
- 2 lbs. 93% Lean Ground Serloin
- 1 lb. Ribeye Steak, 3/8" Cubed
- Chili Powder
- Cayenne
- Cumin
- Paprikia
- 3 can Whole Tomatoes
- 1/2 bar Bakers Bittersweet or Semi-Sweet Chocolate, Chopped
- 1 can Dark Kidney Beans
- 1 can White Kidney Beans
- 1 can Black Beans

METHOD:

1. Prepare Peppers Remove seeds and coarsely chop the peppers. Always wear gloves for this step.

2. Simmer Heat Base In medium sauce pan, add 3 cans of tomato sauce, and the chopped peppers. Simmer on very low heat for 45 minutes.

3. Cube Steak Cube the ribeye into 3/8" Cubes. It's easiest to do this when the steak is slightly frozen.

4. Chop onion and mince garlic

5. Start the gravy base In a very large, lightly oiled pot, brown the garlic and onion. Once fragrant and browned, add the ground sirloin and ribeye steak. As meat browns, add spices to taste.

6. Add more tomato Once the meat is browned, add 3 cans of whole tomatoes and 1 can of tomato sauce.

7. Add heat base to gravy base Once the heat base is finished simmering, put the entire mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Once blended, add to the large pot with the gravy base.

8. Add chopped bakers bar of chocolate.

9. Add beans Wash and drain all of the beans. Add to the pot.

10. Simmer for at least 2 hours Stir occasionally. I do it once every half hour.

Would you screw a goat

if it guaranteed a national title (hoops or football)? 2 of my Purdue buddies said they would (for Purdue that is)

Go Bluuuuuuuuuuuuuueeesssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They will be better than the hawks.. Bank on it. Blues have more depth after looking at the rosters.

ok, you tell me how they are better? you look at that roster for both teams and tell me how theyr are better overall than the Blues? Beyond the first 2 lines, the Hawks dont have much. The Blues go 3-deep with their lines and i think the Blues d is better also.

Even the first 2 lines aren't that ridiculously different between the 2 teams. The Blues have a lot of talent too.

It's a shame that your top 4 are not that great either. I will take Shattenkirk and Petroangelo over your top 2 any day of the week. Keith and Seabrook are not as good as Petro and Shattenkirk. I actually think the Blues top 4 are better

I just checked out the career stats of all 4 and Shatty and Petro have a better skillset to start their careers then Keith and seabrook. Both Blues players have more points in their first full season in the NHL than Seabrook and Keith. If you want to go by a start of a career, the Blues players are better right now. Not taking anything away from the other players, but i think i would rather have these 2 if i had to choose. Not saying i would lose out with the other 2, but to start a franchise, i would have to go with the Blues young guns.

it's all about depth.. i dont care about the other stuff. Blues have more depth. The Hawks didn't win it lastyear because of the lack of depth. Didn't they just barely get in lastyear? Seriously, thats not too impressive.

So we're at the Schmucks this afternoon

and I'm in the checkout. I've let the girls go over to the candy and gum machines to spend a couple of quarters so I can have a moment's peace.

Suddenly, J-Train runs over to me, sobbing, and thrusts something in my face and yells "I DIDN'T WANT THIS!!!!"

I'm all, "What?" and take the ball from her and look. It appears to be just a plastic black and gold striped ball, about the size of a big meatball. I ask, "What is it?"

She yells, "It's a stupid ball! I put my quarters in the wrong machine, and I want more money so I can get something else!"

I said, "I'm sure you're disappointed, but you're not getting more money. You'll just have to be more careful next time with your quarters."

I turn the ball over and see a Mizzou logo.

Then I add, "Eww, Mizzou! I gotta admit, kid, you did get super ripped off here."
