John's Famous Chili

A simple Chili for the slow cooker.

Recipe

bullet

1 - 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef

bullet

1 medium sized onion

bullet

3 medium tomatoes (1/2 28 oz can)

bullet

2 cups (16 oz.) canned red kidney beans

bullet

1 cup frozen corn

bullet

1± cup water

bullet

1+ tablespoon chili powder

bullet

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper to taste (we like it spicy, so I usually add more.)

bullet

1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)

bullet

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

bullet

1/4 teaspoon dried pepper flakes

bullet

2 sticks cinnamon

Brown the meat in a skillet.  After well browned, allow the fat to drain off by placing meat in a strainer.  After well drained, return the meat to the skillet.

Dice onion into 1/4 inch pieces.  Dice tomatoes (if not already diced from can).  Drain kidney beans.  Mix all the ingredients with the meat in the skillet and stir to combine.  After warming, pour into slow cooker ("Crock Pot") and cook on low setting 6-8 hours.

Preparation about 10-15 minutes.  

Serve with shredded Cheddar cheese, diced jalapeño peppers, sour cream, or diced green onions.  Or just eat plain.  Perfect for a Winter's Sunday night supper.

Serves 2-3 people, depending on appetite.
