Hearty Homestead Slow Cooker Chili

There’s just something about the cool fall weather that makes me want a big bowl of chili. Just think of it; Warm, hearty, chunky chili beans with fresh grass fed beef topped with some ooey gooey melted cheese. Ahhhhh, it sounds just about perfect for a brisk autumn day. Homemade chili is quite simple and having a slow cooker do most of the work for you makes it even easier.

 

This hearty chili is made with real ingredients in your crock pot. It is a great slow cooker recipe.

I have planned to buy dry beans in bulk so I can soak and can them but it hasn’t happened yet. I would also love to use homegrown tomatoes but our tomato crop this year was a far cry from being a bumper crop. We have had to improvise by buying canned organic beans and tomatoes for now.

So, without further ado:

I start out by sautéing one onion, a couple of bell peppers, and 3 cloves of garlic in olive oil. P.S. Don’t burn the garlic… just don’t.

Once they are nice and tender I add my ground beef. Next I throw my seasonings in.

Seasonings go in……Steamed up my camera lens.

While the beef is browing and the spices and veggies are infusing their flavor into the beef, I put my beans and tomatoes into the slow cooker.

When the beef is thoroughly cooked I add it to the beans in the slow cooker and give it a good stir.

Add the beef and veggies.

I cook it on medium all day and it is ready for dinner. I like to top the chili with shredded cheese and make cornbread to go along with it. We always have plenty leftover too. This is a meal that will warm you up and fill you up!
