Packs a Wallop!

I loved the title of this recipe when I first stumbled across it on recipezaar a couple of years ago. And "packs a wallop" is right. This ish is SPICY. I don't even know why it took so long for me to make this again, cause it's a fantastic stew. Thick, hearty, spicy. I'd make it if I were you. It's got a great thickening method: cooking potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers in beef broth, pureeing them with a great mixture of spices, and then adding more veggies and the beef, letting them slowly cook, and getting my food on. Kinda makes me wonder how it would be in a crock pot. Speaking of which, I brought a crock pot a month ago and haven't used it. Anyone have any ideas?



Oh, and I tried another slice of that pie. Worked out quite a bit better this time. So by "chill for several hours" they actually meant "24." Jack Bauer wouldn't have made that mistake.
