The slow cooker is a great way to make chili. This beefy chili is packed with beans, veggies, and spice.

Great basic recipe anyone can follow. I cut down the spicyness a little as I have a 2 and 3 yr old and I am a big baby when it comes to spice, teehee!

I made this for New Years Eve for a family pot luck party. It turned out great. I actually had to make 2 pots of it because my grandfather has a special diet right now and can't have Green peppers, onions, and Salt. I made one pot without them ingredients and it turned out great for him. The second pot I made I left out the celery and added a bit of cummin. I also put the onion green pepper and garlic in the pan while I was browning the ground beef. Oh yeah and I used 1 really big can of Tomato sauce and as we don't really like super thick chili. This is a very good recipe even without all of the ingredients!

We ate this for an entire week as a side dish. We swapped the ground beef for ground turkey, and cannellini beans for black ones. I cooked it on high for 4 hours (instead of low for 8 hours).

This Chili is pretty darn good. Not too spicy (so it goes over well with the kids) if you follow the recipe. I made a double batch which barely fit in the jumbo crock pot and froze the leftovers for an easy microwave dinner later. Maybe next time I'll add some corn for that southwestern feel.

Made this recipe the other day and the whole family fell in love with it. I did not add the celery. I used crushed tomatoes and a can of diced tomatoes with chilies in it. Differently making this one again.

I love how people say "wow, what a great recipe!!" .... then proceed to list off the 19 things they changed about it. Guess what, folks.... if you did anything other than adjust the salt and pepper, then it's not this recipe anymore.

Great recipe. Added more veggies since we are vegertarian I added a can of veggie broth and used meat protein as alternate meat. Doubled the spices for flavor and topped with cheese. Had great flavor and would make it again.

This chili was a big hit in my house. I added 1 large can of kidney beans and a small can of cannellini beans. I did not add the celery as suggested by other views. I added 1 onion, 1 green pepper and a tsp of hot sauce. I adjusted the season according to taste. Everything else I pretty much followed. I paired it with baked potato topped with cheese and sour cream. This was a first for my family and they keep asking me to make it again.

I have to agree with the other reviewers who say this is very bland, which is why I gave it three stars. It's a good base or recipe if you aren't into spicy.

Excellent flavor after I modified it a little. Used 2lb chili meat from the butcher. Bumped up the amounts of basil, oregano, salt, pepper, and parsley. Added 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Drained and rinsed all beans (I think this helps cut down on gas!). Used 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilis and one can tomato sauce (not spaghetti sauce). Added 7oz can of green chilis. Cooked on high for 6 hours. Hubby thought it was wonderful; and he's a tough critic!

I used turkey instead of beef and added a pinch of cinnamon, and it turned out pretty good. I like my chili a bit spicier, though, so next time I'll use some hot peppers.

I followed the instructions for the most part... I used ground turkey instead of ground beef, which was a delicious alternative. I like my chili with a little more zip, so I threw in 1 jalapeno pepper (1 half with seeds and the other half without)... it was perfect. I paired this with the "Buttery Corn Bread" recipe I found on this site, which was AMAZING! My boyfriend was quite impressed! -- SCORE!

Super easy and delicious. Added about half a teaspoon of cumin and quite a bit more cayenne and doubled the meat. I will probably follow suggestions and replace one of the puree cans with diced tomatoes. Served with cornbread and on top of mac - happy happy!

This was easy and delicious! I made this last weekend (my first dish in my brand new slow cooker). I took the advice of a few of the other reviews. I drained the beans, I used one can of Hunts Diced Fire Roasted Tomato. I'm not an onion person so I used onion powder (one teaspoon). It was done in 4 hours.

This turned out quite nice. Added a little more garlic and a little more tomato (3 small cans because it didn't make sense to divide it this awkwardly). Turned out great. Added a little more spice and served with shredded cheddar and sour cream topping. Lovely for a nice rainy evening, as it was last night. Served it with Grandmother's Buttermilk Corn Break (recipe on here) - great combination!

Delicious! I left out the dried parsley because I didn't have any, and substituted the cannelini beans with black beans. I also reduced the salt. I topped it with shredded cheddar, diced onion, cilantro and a bit of diced jalapeno - wonderful!
