Emily Thompson's Shiner Hatch Bacon Chili
1 lb. ground chuck
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
1 pkg. McCormick chili seasoning, mild
2 cans diced tomatoes
2 cans tomato sauce
4 strips center cut bacon, cooked & chopped
4 or 5 roasted Hatch green chilies, chopped
2 tbsp. Unca' John's BBQ Dry Rub

Cook bacon, then chop into small pieces and set aside. Brown beef, then add onions
and let them sweat until almost translucent. Salt and pepper to taste. Add all other
ingredients. Cover and simmer on low for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Serve with
optional toppings: grated cheddar cheese, sour cream and chopped onions. (For best
taste, remove the pot from heat and let it cool down. Place it in the refrigerator
overnight. Reheat & serve the next day.)
