Directions:
In a large sauce pan, heat oil. Brown beef and drain. Add the tomato juice, tomato sauce, water, minced onion, chili powder, celery flakes, salt, oregano, garlic salt, red pepper, green chili's and jalapeņos. Hold on the optional stuff for now.

Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer covered for 4 hours.

If you decide to add the beans (nasty idea but you never know about you kids) add them after 3 hours simmering.

The diced onion and cheddar is for optional garnish and you can serve it over the elbows (kind of a Wisconsin thing).

Wimps can reduce the red pepper and the jalapeņos if it's too hot.
