Slow Cooker

Basic Chunky Chili

There is nothing like having a hot bowl of chili on a chilly day. Yes, I know what I just said…

This chili is easy to make and can be made on the stove or in the crockpot. I used “ground chuck for chili” in this recipe. I like using this cut because the finished product will have nice sized chunks of meat. Let’s grab our ingredients and get started.

Ingredients

1 lb             browned ground chuck (The package will say “for chili” on it.)

1                 large onion (chopped)

3 tbsp          chili powder

1 tsp           garlic salt

1 tsp           season salt

2 tsp           oregano

4 tsp           cumin

2 tbsp          beef bouillon

16 oz           water

1                 14.5oz can roasted diced tomatoes

1                 14.5oz can zesty chili style diced tomatoes

2                 15.5oz cans kidney beans

2 tbsp          tomato paste

Instructions

Brown ground chuck. Add onions to the meat and cook until translucent. Drain completely.

Return ground chuck to the pot and add all ingredients. Add 2 tbsp of beef bouillon to 16oz of water. Make sure to stir completely then add to pot. Stir bouillon mixture with other ingredients. Simmer for 1 hour. This is a great “dump and go” meal. There is really nothing to it.

Let me know how it goes in the comments section. What changes did you make? See you soon!
