Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp stalk celery finely chopped or 1/2 celery salt
- 1 onion chopped
- 4 oz can diced green chili's
- 29 oz can tomato sauce
- 29 oz can diced tomatoes
- 29 oz can kidney beans with liquid
- 29 oz can pinto beans with liquid
- 2 tsp cumin powder
- 3 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 tbs cayenne pepper optional for added heat
Instructions
- Cook the ground beef in a pan over med-high heat. Finely chop celery and onion. Add these and remaining ingredients to a crock pot. When pouring contents in the crock pot be sure not to drain the liquid from your beans. We don't discriminate against bean juices here okay? At this point you can also add in some cayenne pepper to spice things up, but I never do, because lets face it, I am a wimp. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or on low 8 hours. Serve with cheese, sour cream, chips, or my Irish Brown Bread Recipe from last week. It is a perfect compliment to the chili.

Notes
