Steps:

• Heat a large stock pot over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground beef and sausage into the hot pot, and cook until evenly browned. Drain off excess grease, then add the onion and bell pepper.
• Pour in diced tomatoes and tomato paste, plus water. Pour in the kidney beans and chili beans. Season with chili powder, garlic, cumin, Louisiana Hot Sauce, salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, and sugar. Stir to blend, then cover leaving the lid cracked open a little room for steam to escape to help it thicken. Simmer over low heat for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
• After 2 hours, taste, and adjust salt, pepper, and chili powder, maybe more onion powder, if necessary. The longer the chili simmers, the better it will taste. To thicken smash some of the beans on the bottom with a slotted spoon and stir, if it looks too thick add a little more water. It's that last hour the flavors really come together and you know it's ready. Remove from heat and serve.
• To serve, ladle into bowls, and add crackers, onions, cheese, sour cream.. however you like it. Plan on Chili Mac or Frito Pie with leftovers.
