Crockpot Chili Recipes
Crockpot Chili 1
2 onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic (I use the minced kind that comes in a jar)
1 lb. lean hamburger
2 Tbs. chili powder
cumin to taste (I leave this out)
2 cans (16 oz. ea.) tomatoes
2 cans tomato soup
2 cans kidney beans, drained
salt and pepper to taste
optional: shredded cheese and/or sour cream for topping
1. Cook onions and garlic in 2 Tbs. oil till onions are yellow. Add hamburger and cook till browned. Stir in chili powder and optional cumin; cook 2 minutes more. Meanwhile, in crockpot, combine remaining ingredients. Stir in browned meat mixture. Cover and cook on Low setting for 8-10 hours. To serve: ladle chili into bowls. Top with optional shredded cheese and/or sour cream, if desired. Note: This can be made on top of the stove, too. Let it cook for 1 hour, but stir, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom.
Crockpot Chili 2
1 lb ground beef, cooked and rinsed
60-70 ounces rinsed light or dark kidney beans
16 ounces tomato paste
16 ounces peeled chopped tomatoes (reserve liquid)
1/2 small onion, chooped
1 small green pepper, chopped
1 package chili seasonings
cayenne pepper to taste, if desired
Okay, now the hard part, put it all in the crockpot and cook on low until you are ready, I’d recommend at least 5 hours so the peppers and onions are cooked soft. Use the reserved tomato liquid if it seems too thick for your taste.
Crockpot Chili 3
1 16 oz can kidney beans — drained
2 14 1/2 oz can tomatoes
2 pounds ground chuck — coarsely ground
2 medium onions — coarsely chopped
1 green pepper — coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic — crushed
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon cumin
salt to taste
Put all ingredients in crock pot in order listed. Stir once. Cover and cook on Low 10-12 hours. (High 5-6 hours). NOTES : Serve with shredded cheddar cheese and tortilla chips.
