Add brown sugar or honey.

V8 juice is added next.

Cook down for about 10 minutes at a simmer.

Add beans last and cook them until they are done to your taste.

Cook this entire batch of chili until you get it comin' up. Bubbling a little. Do not boil. Turn it off and let it sit, let it sit, and let it sit. You can even let it sit so long that it gets cold.

Then, reheat it.

Siphon off the grease when it cools - the whitish looking stuff on the top.
