Growing up poor after Dad died - a German butcher - mom kept the two of us going on recipes that were tasty but inexpensive. Next to "Breaded Veal", the “Filet Mignon” of my youth, this ground beef chili recipe was a gourmet meal and a welcome treat on a cold day. Mild and sweet, kids love this thick soup, especially with "Ritz" or similar crackers. Remember to rinse the meat in a colander after cooking to reduce saturated fats. They're not needed for flavor. To reproduce the taste I remember, I've included the brand names of the ingredients my Mom used and that I still use today. I hope you all enjoy! The weird name for this recipe is simply a tribute to my Mom and the fact that it's two of almost every ingredient, making it easy to remember.
