Ingredients

1 Tbsp olive oil
2 lbs lean ground beef
1 large yellow onion, (finely chopped)
3 cloves garlic, (finely minced)
2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies*
3 (8 oz) cans tomato sauce
1/2 cup beef broth
2 Tbsp chili powder
2 1/2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp granulated sugar
1/2 tsp ground coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (15 oz) can dark red kidney beans, (drained and rinsed)
1 (15 oz) can light red kidney beans, ( drained and rinsed)
Shredded cheddar cheese, (for serving)

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.

$50 CHILI - FOR THE CROCKPOT

$50 Chili - for the Crockpot image

First, thank you to Parsley - Chef # 199848 - for inspiring me with her "Thick and Chunky Crock Pot Game Day Chili," Recipe #251837. I had tried about 20 different recipes for Chili, and Parsley's was the best. But I've been tweaking it for a year and a half now, and I think I did it! This chili is medium to medium-hot, not very sweet, hearty and stew-like, with depth and a delicious aftertaste. I make in a 7-quart crockpot, for my large family. If you like your chili sweeter, use a red onion instead of a white onion; add more brown sugar; and/or add more chocolate chips. Be careful: a little chocolate - just like cumin and cinnamon - goes a looonnnngggg way!

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs stewing beef, cut into 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch cubes
1 1/2 lbs stewing pork, cut into 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch cubes
1 big white onion, chopped
3 small bell peppers, chopped, I like to use 1 each of red, yellow, and orange
1 -2 orange habanero pepper, chopped, careful, these are HOT
1 -1 1/2 tablespoon spice world chopped garlic
5 (15 1/2 ounce) cans beans, I use 2 cans dark red kidneys, 2 cans light red kidneys, and 1 can black
2 (16 ounce) jars chunky salsa, medium (I like Pace)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can beef broth
1 1/2-2 cups crushed tostito tortilla chips
1 chicken bouillon cube, crushed
1 beef bouillon cube, crushed
1 1/4 teaspoons sazon goya
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
5 teaspoons Mexican chili powder
4 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
5 -10 dark chocolate chips, yes, between 5 and 10 chips, depending on desired sweetness

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in a 7-quart crockpot. It might be easier to combine in a larger vessel, mix, and THEN transfer to your crockpot. Cook on "High" for 5 hours, or "Low" for 8 hours.
I typically serve the chili over a bed of whole Tostito chips, with a layer of shredded cheese in between.

EASY CROCK POT CHILI

Easy Crock Pot Chili image

My latest chili recipe - I've found it tastes best if made the day before. Adjust the heat by using hot, medium or mild picante sauce and taco seasoning (I use hot for both). Red pepper flakes are optional, but I like it hot and use 2 teaspoons.

Tips:

Use a variety of beans: Different beans offer different flavors and textures, so using a mix of beans will add complexity and depth to your chili. Some popular options include kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and Great Northern beans.
Don't skimp on the spices: Chili is all about the spices, so don't be afraid to add a generous amount. Common spices used in chili include chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, and garlic powder.
Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the chili will be. Look for fresh vegetables, flavorful meat, and high-quality spices.
Let the chili simmer for a long time: The longer the chili simmers, the more time the flavors will have to meld together. Aim for at least 4 hours, but 8 hours or more is even better.
Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Chili is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of toppings. Some popular options include cheese, sour cream, onions, avocado, and cilantro.
