Melt drippings or butter; when heated, saute onion and garlic; add the ground meat. Stir; saute meat until well done; discard any grease. Add tomatoes, kidney beans, salt, bay leaf, sugar, wine and chili powder. Cover; simmer about 1 hour or longer. The longer it cooks, the thicker it becomes and the better it tastes.
The chili can be prepared a day in advance and reheated.
