mrs. ferrell's chili (modified)

Moore, OK

This recipe (with out the tomatoes and the chilies) is from my great-grandmother. It was originally intended for a pressure cooker, but since many don't have those anymore, I have altered it a bit for crock pots and stove top. This can be altered even further, adding ingredients as you feel. I have personally tried the crockpot version, but I have not done the stove top. If you have, let me know how this works! As soon as I try it on stove top, I will post a picture and/or updates on the recipe.
