This chili was created on a snowing Carolina Day. It takes a little time but it worth the wait! We add peppers, too -- we like it hot!

Ingredient :

• 2 ½ pounds ground beef

• 3 tablespoons olive oil

• 3 stalks celery, diced

• 2 large onions, diced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tablespoon ground cumin

• ¼ cup chili powder

• 2 teaspoons ground coriander

• 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper

• 1 dash Worcestershire sauce

2. In a large pot over medium heat, cook celery, onions and garlic in olive oil until onion is translucent.
