Equipments used:
Notes
- Ground beef: I like to use 85% or 90% lean ground beef. Sometimes leaner ground beef can dry out in the slow cooker.
- Tomatoes with chilies: Ro-Tel will also work.
- Chili powder: I like the smokiness of ancho chile powder, but regular chili powder will work, too.
- Cocoa powder: The cocoa powder gives the chili an earthiness. Feel free to omit it if you prefer.
- Beans: Feel free to substitute a can of black beans for the kidney beans if you prefer.
