In a 2 ½ quart saucepan cook the meat over medium
heat until it is well done, about 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently to crumble
the meat. Pour off the fat. With a slotted spoon transfer meat to paper
towels to absorb extra fat and wipe the remaining fat residue from the
saucepan.
In the same pot, sauté the onion, garlic, and
green pepper with ½ cup of the crushed tomatoes for 3 minutes. Add
the oregano, cumin, chili powder, cocoa powder, sugar, hot pepper, and
tabasco sauce, and continue cooking for 3 minutes more.
Add the beans, meat, and the remaining crushed tomatoes,
and cook together for 25 minutes over low heat.
