EASY SLOW COOKER CHILI

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
• Stir browned beef, chili beans in sauce, stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes and green chilies, onion, tomato paste, brown sugar, chili seasoning mix, and barbeque sauce together in the crock of a slow cooker.
• Cook on High for 3 hours.

SLOW COOKER CHILI

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large and deep non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add onion and saute 3 minutes, then add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer. Pour onions into a 6 or 7 quart slow cooker (I like this one HERE).
• Return skillet to medium-high eat, add beef and cook stirring occasionally until beef has browned.
• Drain most of fat from beef, leaving about 2 Tbsp in with beef (this is optional, I think it ads flavor but you can drain it all if you'd prefer). Pour browned beef into slow cooker.
• Stir in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cocoa powder, sugar, coriander and season mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover with lid and cook on low heat for 5 - 6 hours.
• Stir in dark and light red kidney beans and allow to heat through, about 2 minutes. Serve warm with desired toppings.

SPICY SLOW-COOKED CHILI

• Combine ground beef, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, onions, bell pepper, garlic, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on Low for 10 hours, or High for 4 hours.
• Garnish each serving with Cheddar cheese.

SPICY CROCK POT CHILI

EASY & MILD CROCKPOT CHILI

Steps:

• Brown ground beef with onion powder & garlic.
• Place browned meat & the remaining ingredients (except beans) into the crockpot.
• Stir to ensure all ingredients are incorporated (mixed well).
• Cook on Low 6-10 Hours.
• Add Beans to the Chili 1/2-1 hour before the end of cooking (long enough to heat them through).
• Special Note: I have added the complete 6oz can of tomato paste (so as not to waste it) with no issues. You may want to add a bit more water if you do use the whole can. Also, I have used just kidney beans or just pintos or both (for a realy hearty chili). This is one of those recipes you can play around with and have little ill-effects.
• Also, I like to top ours with fresh grated cheddar cheese & a dollip of sour cream immediately before serving.
