Texas Fire Pit Chili and Stew.....(Prono)
 

Well, nice fall day. Looked more like spring actually.:-D So I decided to get the fire pit going with some peeecan and put another layer of seasoning on the DO's. I made a (beanless, though I love beans in my chili) brisket chili and a sausage, potato, and collard stew. Also had a few brews and just basically hung out in the backyard listening to some tunes.

I had no choice but to wear shorts and a sleeveless shirt. Farking fall weather in the Southwest. Gotta love it!:lol:
