Step 1

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and fry until crisp. Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate. Leave one tablespoon of bacon grease in the pan and drain off the rest.

Step 2

Add the sliced sausage and cook on each side until browned. Remove from the pot and set aside with the bacon.

Step 3

Add the ground beef, onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the pot. Cook, using a wooden spoon to break up the beef until the beef is cooked through and the onion is translucent.

Step 4

Add the flour, chili powder, salt, and pepper, and stir for 1 minute or until no dry flour remains.

Step 5

Stir in the kidney beans, black beans, petite diced tomatoes, corn, potatoes, beef broth, cooked bacon, and sausage. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Garnish with parsley and serve.
