skillet texas chili

From a Stokely-Van Camp cookbook published in the early 80's. It's perfect for quiet evenings at home when you don't need a big batch of chili, and of course can be doubled when more is needed. I listed the green peppers as "optional" because my husband and I can't eat them, and the chili is great without them!
