I'm making this in the morning. I'll wear a hat to make it authentic.

Yup!  No hat, not the real deal…

I wore my Death Valley baseball cap. I reckon it's a desert cowboy stew. Almost didn't make it past the bacon frying. Part of me wanted to stop right there.

Critique - A very tasty stew. We loved the pinto and the kidney beans. Browning the beef well gave it a great favor. But, it was just a bit too hot for our taste. Next time around I will cut the recipe in half and eliminate the cans of chopped green peppers. The stew had great favors, it doesn't need to be hot.

Great stew. I can eat it forever. For those who aren't familiar with Cowboy Kent Rollins' Cowboy Beef

We put it together yesterday morning. After browning the meat and onions, we do it the lazy way in a crockpot. It makes the house smell so darn good all day. We eliminated the extra cans of green chilies. The chilies with the tomatoes was just enough. Why a stew? 'Cause it's easy to heat up on the propane cooktop when power goes out.
