Navajo Taco Meat/Chili
- Cook and crumble ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once browned, drain grease. Add ground beef and all other chili ingredients to a large stock pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 hour.
- Once oil is ready, remove biscuit dough from can. Press dough into a flat circle. Carefully, place dough into the hot oil and fry for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown. Carefully remove from oil, and lay fried dough onto a paper towel lined plate to let soak up grease. Repeat with all biscuit dough.
