Plains Folk Venison Chili

http://www.plainsfolk.com/recipe/chili.htm

1 pound ground venison 
Cooking oil 
1 onion 
3 cloves garlic (pressed or diced) 
About a short teaspoon each of oregano, marjoram, basil, thyme, cumin 
1 tablespoon chili powder 
1 large can diced tomatoes 
1 can of pinto beans 
Splash of red wine 

Venison makes great chili, which should be seasoned heartily to complement the flavor of the game. 
The mix of herbs in this recipe gives the chili a bitter depth that is great underneath the heat. In this 
recipe we also use half a quart jar of our own canned tomatoes. 

Brown venison in a little oil in a big pot.
Add onion and garlic.
Season.
Add tomatoes, wine.
Add beans last, after the chili has simmed nicely.
