Ingredients

2 pounds ground beef
1 pound fully cooked Polish sausage or kielbasa, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 Anaheim chilies, stemmed, seeded, and chopped
3 yellow wax peppers, seeded and chopped
3 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
4 medium tomatoes, chopped
4 tomatillos, husked and chopped
½ cup distilled white vinegar
¼ cup tomato sauce
1 (4 ounce) jar chopped pimentos, drained
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Steps:

Place the ground beef into a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until beef is no longer pink. Drain off excess grease, leaving just enough to coat the bottom of the pot. Add the polish sausage, onion and garlic to the pot; cook and stir until onion is tender. Mix in the Anaheim, yellow and jalapeno peppers, tomatoes and tomatillos. Simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes.
Pour in the vinegar, tomato sauce and pimentos and then mix in the pinto beans and kidney beans; cover and simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes.

POLISH PICKLE SOUP! OR POLISH CHILI !

Polish Pickle Soup! or Polish Chili ! image

I had a few requests for this recipe... You can add or delete items and you can play with meats and seasonings... Many people eat this without any meat. It is easy to make and enjoy! You can substitute the sour cream with canned tomatoes (amount doesn't really matter), and you can add Polish Sausage cut up instead of the bacon...

Tips:

Choose the right type of chili peppers. For a mild chili, use poblano or Anaheim peppers. For a medium chili, use jalapeño peppers. For a hot chili, use cayenne or habanero peppers.
Roast the chili peppers before using them. This will enhance their flavor and reduce their bitterness.
Use a variety of beans in your chili. This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Chili is a great dish to customize to your own taste.
Let your chili simmer for a long time. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
Serve your chili with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro.
