In large sauce pan, heat olive oil to medium high heat. Add onion and jalapeños, and sauté for approximately 5 minutes, or until soft. Add ground beef, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook until meat is browned.
To large crock pot, add the ground beef mixture. Add tomato juice, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, cannelloni beans, and sugar - and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low all day, or up to eight hours.
Serve chili with shredded cheese, saltine crackers, and sour cream.
