Barbecued Beef Chili
Served with a hot loaf of bread and a side salad, this slow-cooker chili makes a hearty meal. The recipe was inspired by two friends when we were talking about food at a potluck barbecue. —Phyllis Shyan, Elgin, Illinois

I won a chili cook-off with this recipe! I used 3.5 lbs of brisket. Slow cooked it on high for 5 hours. Shredded the meat, skimmed the fat, added the beans, and put it in the refrigerator for 2 days. This part is key! Flavors will develop while it sits. The morning of the cook-off I took the rest of the solidified fat off the top. Set the slow cooker to low and added one square of unsweetened chocolate. Let it heat up and the chocolate melt. Carefully stirred it up as to not shred the brisket too much. It's a winner!
Excellent taste. I have made this several times with multiple requests for more
My family loved this! I made a couple adjustments. The brisket was a little too pricey for our budget, so I decided to try it with 2 lbs. of ground beef. Also, I only used 4 teaspoons of chili powder so it wasn't so spicy for my little one. We all loved it! Next time I might try a beef roast and shred it in place of the brisket. Highly recommended!
Absolutely delicious!
Very good chili!! Excellent with cornbread. Thanks for the recipe!
Wow is this spicy!!!! I can't serve it to my kids but my husband is going to love it. Very Tangy too yum!
I did not like this at all. I ate maybe three bites and threw it all out. Way too intense flavor for me; but it's obvious by the comments that most people loved it.
This is a nice change to chili! I love the tangy BBQ flavor. Great with cornbread! It can be thickend a little with flour and served on a roll or bun. This is a keeper! YES! I'll be making it again! :-)
Perfect choice of meat, well rounded rub,just enough flavor's and ingredients to make a great sit down meal. If you have time try smokeing the meat for a few hour's and then follow recipe to the letter and you will be glad you took the time to make this A1+ chili. Eather way very excellent!!
