      2 cn Tomato sauce                      1/2 tb Salt

  Wash beans in colander and soak overnight. Wash again next day, and place
  in large chili pot. Cover with water about 1/2 to 3/4 inch over beans;
  simmer, covered, for about 2-1/2 hours or until done.

  If substituting beans with the lean beef sirloin, brown the meat 1 pound at
  a time, preferably in a non-stick skillet without any oil. Place the meat
  in large chili pot. You will also need 1 more 12 ounce can of tomato sauce
  and 1 to 2 10 ounce cans of fat-skimmed beef stock. You will add the extra
  can of tomato sauce and the can of beef stock in the next paragraph of
  directions.

  Brown meat and place in large saucepan. Add all of the other ingredients
  and spices. Mix well. Simmer, covered, for 1 hour. When beans are done, add
  contents of saucepan to chili pot and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. Makes 15
  to 20 servings, 225 calories each (205 with out the oil). Salt and pepper
  to taste.
