  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      tablespoons   lard, bacon drippins,  or butter
   1      large         onion -- coarsely chopped
   3      lbs           lean beef -- cut in 1/2 cubes
   3      medium-size   garlic cloves -- finely chopped
     1/4  cup           hot chile -- ground
     1/4  cup           mild chile -- ground
   1      tablespoon    ground cumin
   3 1/2  cups          water
   1 1/2  teaspoons     salt or to taste

Heat lard in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until 
softened. Remove from heat. Add meat, garlic, ground chiles and cumin 
to pot. Break up any lumps. Stir in the water and salt. Return to 
heat. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 2 1/2 to 
3 hours, stirring occasionally, until the meat is very tender and the 
flavors are well blended. Add more water if necessary. Taste and 
adjust seasonings. Have ice water on hand. Some folks add cooked red 
beans to this wonderful mixture, I do not! but you be the judge.
