MEATY THICK MAN CHILI
Contrary to the title, it doesn't have men in it. However it is a man's best friend, it's thick, not as tomato-ey as most chili's. Best served with fresh bread.

SLOW COOKER HAMBURGERS
When summer temperatures climb to 100 degrees, or higher, avoid heating yourself or your kitchen, and use the slow cooker instead! Create a "rack" out of hand-formed rolls of aluminum foil for the bottom of the cooker, so the burgers won't sit in their own juices. Add a little smoke flavor and some browning sauce, and you'll have a good-looking, tasty burger that is full of smoky flavor. Optional toppings for the hamburgers include cheese, mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, pickles, sliced tomato, sliced onion, and lettuce.

Steps:
- Set a slow cooker to Low.
- Create a rack for the bottom of the cooker by rolling aluminum foil into 1-inch rolls. For a 5-quart, oblong cooker, make 4 rolls, using the length of the cooker as a guide. Fold in any long ends and squeeze back on the rolls. Evenly space the rolls along the bottom of the cooker.
- Combine ground beef, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, steak seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add bread crumbs and egg. Mix all ingredients using your hands until they are evenly distributed.
- Form meat mixture into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Brush each side of the patties with 1/2 teaspoon of browning sauce, and place on the aluminum "rack", being careful not to overlap.
- Cook on Low for about 4 1/2 hours until burgers are no longer pink in the center. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
- Place each cooked patty on a hamburger bun.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground beef: For the best flavor and texture, use 80/20 ground beef. This means that it contains 80% lean meat and 20% fat.
- Brown the beef well: Before adding the beef to the slow cooker, brown it in a skillet over medium-high heat until it is no longer pink. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the beef from becoming dry.
- Use a variety of beans: This recipe calls for two cans of beans, but you can use any beans that you like. Some good options include kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and white beans.
- Add some spice: If you like your chili spicy, add a teaspoon or two of chili powder or cayenne pepper. You can also add some chopped jalapeños or serrano peppers.
- Let it simmer: The longer the chili simmers, the more flavorful it will be. Let it simmer for at least 4 hours, or up to 8 hours.
Conclusion:
This thick and hearty crock pot burger chili is the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and packed with flavor. Serve it with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, shredded cheese, or chopped onions.
