This is our grandmother’s recipe, Ione Teeter Holm. She used to cook up a huge pot of these beans for the hungry cowboys on round-ups at the Circle H Ranch up on Mines Road. Before they moved to the hills, she would cook it up at home on Stanley Boulevard, wrap it up, along with a big green salad, some french bread, and her famous huge chocolate cake, and drive the 15 miles up the hill to the ranch. Anyone can have a successful pot of chili beans with this recipe. Now giddy-up!
