Tips:

  • Prep ahead for easy cooking: Chop vegetables, measure spices, and even brown the beef in advance. This way, you can quickly assemble the chili stew in the morning and let it cook while you're away.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful spices, and tender beef will make a big difference in the taste of your chili stew. Don't skimp on the ingredients; it's worth it to use the best you can find.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Make sure there's enough room for the ingredients to move around and cook evenly. If you're using a small slow cooker, you may need to cook the chili stew in batches.
  • Let the chili stew cook on low and slow: This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen. Don't be tempted to turn the heat up to high; this will only make the chili stew tough and overcooked.
  • Season to taste: Every palate is different, so taste the chili stew before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more chili powder, cumin, salt, or pepper. Serve with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped cilantro.
