Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1½ tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 2 tbsp cumin
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- pepper
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth, full sodium
- 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
- 1 (15.5 oz) can red kidney beans drained and rinsed
- 2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce
Optional Toppings
- sour cream
- cheese
- green onions
Instructions
- In a skillet, cook ground beef until browned and cooked through. Drain fat.
- Add sugar, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, garlic salt, paprika, and pepper. Stir and cook for an additional minute.
- Transfer to a large slow cooker. Add beef broth, diced tomatoes, drained kidney beans, and tomato sauce to the slow cooker.
- Stir and cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours or on LOW for 6-8 hours.
- Season with more garlic salt and pepper, if desired.
- Add any toppings (sour cream, cheese, green onions, etc.) before serving.
Notes
- Extra flavors. Here are a few extras to make this dish your own:
- STORE in an airtight container(s) in the fridge for 3-4 days. Leftovers can be used to make other delicious meals: chili Baked Potato, chili Hot Dogs, chili Nachos, or chili mac.
- FREEZE. Let the Crockpot Chili cool and add it to the desired size of freezer-safe containers. Freeze it for 4-6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, allowing 24 hours for every 5 lbs.
- Add a polenta flavor by using cornmeal. Just a few tablespoons will do. Note that it will also thicken the chili, which can be balanced with a little extra broth.
- Citrus: lemon or lime juice can add a clean, fresh tang.
- Brown sugar helps balance flavors.
