Best Chili

Ok guys, here is the recipe for the yummy Chili. I didn't take pictures when I made it, so sorry this is a little ghetto...

1 1/2 lbs of stew meat diced into chunks
1-2 tsp olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 stalk of celery, diced
6 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 red or yellow bell pepper diced
1/4 jalapeno, diced (optional)
2 16 oz cans diced tomatoes
2 tsp cumin powder
3 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1 tsp sugar
2 tbsp vinegar
1 7 oz can green chili's
2 15 oz cans of tomato sauce
1 16 oz black beans
2 16 oz can chili beans or pinto beans

Heat olive oil in a skillet, add beef and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add onions, celery, pepper, garlic and jalapeno. Sauté for about another 3-4 minutes, then place in a crockpot. Add tomatoes, beans, and all remaining ingredients, stir. Cook on low heat for 4-8 hours, depending on how much time you have! The longer it cooks, the more tender and shredded the meat gets.
