Crockpot Chili

We shot this cooking video last fall, because chili is such a fall comfort food.

However, the last few mornings, we’ve been waking up to temperatures in the 30s and I thought that chili sounded like it would really hit the spot, so I had Terry dig the video out of the archives.

Crockpot Chili Con Carne

2 lbs. round steak cut into pieces to fit in crockpot

1 1/2 cups red kidney beans soaked overnight

3/4 tsp. Penzeys SW Seasoning

1/2 tsp. Penzeys Arizona Dreaming

2 tbsp. chili powder

4 dashes Tabasco Sauce

2 tbsp. minced fresh garlic

I can tomato sauce

2 cups onion chopped

Mix tomato sauce with seasonings and garlic. In a crockpot, layer steak pieces with onions and tomato mixture. Cook slowly (about eight hours). Before serving, cut up steaks into bite-sized piece and return to the chili.
