I’ve always made this on the stovetop and let it sit all day and cook, but figured I’d just make it in the crockpot, because essentially that would be the same. Again I don’t have exact measurements of spices because I never measure and I make my own recipes up, so this will be a guess. Also, I didn’t make this as spicy as I usually do because apparently this pregnancy I’m hypersensitive to spicy foods and they taste 10x more spicy than they are.
Ingredients:
2 15oz cans of Tomato Sauce
2 15oz cans of Diced tomatoes (either regular or chili ready)
2 15oz cans of Kidney Beans (I use one dark red and one light red)
1.5 lbs of ground chuck
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
2-3 Tablespoons of chili powder
1 Tablespoon of garlic powder
S&P
Directions:
Brown your ground beef in a pan on the skillet, and season a little with chili powder, garlic powder, and S&P.
Drain your meat.
Pour everything into crock pot, chuck your meat in, spices, veggies etc.
Stir together. Cook on high for 1.5 hours, and then try and season accordingly if you need more spices.
I then turned mine on low for another 3 hours until dinner time.
You can also add some frozen corn kernels into it, celery, etc…I just made it how I have always done it throughout the years.
Serve with cheese, sour cream, and green onions to garnish. If you have leftovers you can make chili dogs, chili mac, chili nachos, or even freeze it as it freezes and reheats very well.

This chili sounds delicious. I usually make mine with chicken or turkey meat or no meat at all. I also like mushrooms in mine. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

This is a very easy and delicious recipe for Crock Pot chili. I like all of the ingredients, and plan on using this recipe. I will make a cornbread recipe with it and this will be a hearty meal.
