1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground chuck
one 14 1/2-ounce can beef broth
one 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, drained

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven. Stir in the onion and garlic and cook until soft. Add the pork and beef, and cook until browned. Drain off the excess fat.

    Step 2

    Add the beef broth and tomatoes, squashing each tomato by hand before adding it. Stir in the vinegar, raisins, spices, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat and cook 30 minutes, partially covered. Uncover and cook for 30 minutes more. Add the olives and almonds and cook an additional 5 minutes.

  2. Step 3

    To serve, place a mound of beans and a mound of rice in each bowl. Ladle the chili on top.
