It's just chunks of meat (not ground meat) with chili powder and seasonings to give it its deep red color. The meat cooks for hours and as it cooks down you continue to add water and spices as it develops a depth of flavor. No tomatoes or beans.
Sounds a bit like Indian Tandoori style cooking.
Except they don't use beef obviously. But chunks of meat, spicy and red in colour sounds like Tandoori.
We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
