Slow Cooker Beef Chili Recipe
Chilly weather means it’s the perfect time for chili. I can’t believe in 8 years of blogging I don’t have a recipe for classic beef chili on my blog. Better late than never. This slow cooker chili is easy, hearty comfort food that’s packed with flavor that develops beautifully as the chili simmers away in your slow cooker. The ground beef chili is rich in flavor and has a tiny amount of kick, but I wouldn’t say it’s spicy. Add the spices to your taste preferences. You can add more chili powder, add cayenne powder, or use hot green chilis if you want to kick it up. Good thing you’ll have leftovers because this easy beef chili tastes even better the next day and it freezes well. It’s comfort food at its finest!
