Slow-Cooked Chunky Chili
Pork sausage, ground beef and plenty of beans make this chili a marvelous meal. I keep serving-size containers of it in my freezer at all times so I can quickly warm up bowls on busy days. —Margie Shaw, Greenbrier, Arkansas

Just made this! It was a hit with everyone. Used fajita seasoning instead of taco, because it was all I had. And used green and red peppers. Best chili I've made in a long time.
no beef in recipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!how much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was really good. My daughter, visiting to help us clear out some junk, took one bite and was all thumbs up before I even asked. She took a good portion of it home to her roommates. I did use half and half on kidney and black beans, low sodium on all I could, while keeping the salt from the recipe and it was still amazingly good and easy to season to individual tastes in the bowl. I was surprised at using taco instead of chili seasoning but was pleasantly surprised. I used a store brand of tomatoes and diced chiles which only came in 14.5oz cans, but it was easy enough to just weigh it out on the scale and refrigerate the rest for nachos or huevos rancheros later.
This was excellent! Only thing I did differently was drain the 14 oz cans of tomatoes, used only two cans of beans, and added 1 Tbsp each of cumin and chili powder because I only had 1/2 envelope of tex mex chili seasoning.
Tried this recipe using our new CrockPot for the first time. Tried half kidney and half black beans as someone else had mentioned. Turned out great....a new crew favorite!
This was so good! One of the best chili recipes I've made!
Drat....DH said it was too tomatoey. Used Pom strained tomatoes, added 1/2 tablespoon Himalayan salt, sprinkled in onion & garlic powder, 1 lb. grass fed beef, 1 can organic red beans, 2 Tablespoons Trader Joe's taco seasoning. DH dislikes diced tomatoes, green pepper, & pork sausage is not on our menu.
I made this recipe yesterday. Instead of cooking all on high in the crock pot for 4 to 5 hours, I cooked all on low for 12 hours. It came out beautifully and was incredibly tasty and chunky. I'll be making this one again.
The best chili i ever cooked.
This Chili rated fantastic with my guy,he said ate 3 bowls hard to stop,even said it topped Windy's.i used exact Recipe except had Extra can of whole plum tom's i diced and threw in.It did not hurt the recipe had plenty of juice.The taco seasoning was perfect,i kept wondering how it would be with no chili powder.----This will be my Chili recipe from now on and plan to share it.=====just enough seasoning===would be great for football party's.
