Chorizo-Chipotle-Corn Chili

8 oz. chorizo sausage 

10 oz. lean ground beef

1 lg. clove garlic - minced

¼ lg. onion - minced

Squeeze the chorizo out of the casing.  Combine these in a 4 qt. pot over medium heat.  Chop up the meat as it's heating and allow it all to sizzle for 5 minutes or so.

1 15 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 13 oz. carton crushed tomatoes

1 jalapeño quartered-seeded-sliced

3 lg. cloves garlic - sliced

⅔ c diced yellow pepper

¾ lg. onion - chopped

⅔ c diced celery

1 can chili type beans

1-2 cans corn - drained

2-3T ground cumin

3-4 c water

1T sugar

Combine all the ingredients from the second group in the pot with the meat.  I didn't use the longer, Anaheim pepper.  Simmer together, stirring often, for about an hour. . .Mmmmm. . .Chili! . . . Lin
