• Cook on High for 3 hours.

Steps:

• Cover; cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.
• Note: To make on stovetop, mix all ingredients in a big soup pot; cover and simmer for about an hour or so.

Steps:

• Just throw all ingredients into the crock pot and turn on low for approximately 7-8 hours.
• It's ready whenever you are.
• Great served with biscuits or nacho chips.
• Even tastes good the next day!

Steps:

• Throw meat into the crock pot.
• Dump the two soups on top (don't have to stir or mix, just let it stay where it lands).
• Empty package of onion soup mix on top of everything.
• Put lid on.
• Turn pot on medium-low heat.
• Go to class and library (approx. 7 hours), when you come home your dorm/apartment will smell like mom has been cooking there all day.
• Remove lid and stir.
• Eat whenever you're ready.
• Invite your friends over or you will have A LOT of leftovers (which freeze well).
• It makes lots of gravy which is great over rice or mashed potatoes!

Steps:

• Brown ground beef with onion powder & garlic.
• Place browned meat & the remaining ingredients (except beans) into the crockpot.
• Stir to ensure all ingredients are incorporated (mixed well).
• Cook on Low 6-10 Hours.
• Add Beans to the Chili 1/2-1 hour before the end of cooking (long enough to heat them through).
• Special Note: I have added the complete 6oz can of tomato paste (so as not to waste it) with no issues. You may want to add a bit more water if you do use the whole can. Also, I have used just kidney beans or just pintos or both (for a realy hearty chili). This is one of those recipes you can play around with and have little ill-effects.
• Also, I like to top ours with fresh grated cheddar cheese & a dollip of sour cream immediately before serving.

Steps:

• Brown ground beef with onion and garlic. (if using stew meat or buffalo meat only brown the meat, do not fully cook!).
• Drain meat if necessary.
• Combine meat/onion/garlic mixture with the remainder of the ingredients and put in slow cooker.
• Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.
• Remove bay leaf prior to serving.
• I use Frontier Co-op spices that I purchase at my local health food co-op. I find their spices are extremely fresh and their 90,000 hu cayeene is great for slow-cooking recipes!
• If making this as a vegetarian chili, simply skip the meat and add more beans. I love to add black beans. Yum!
• Serve over rice or eat as is.

Steps:

• Brown your choice of ground meat in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Stir often till thoroughly cooked, Drain in a small-holed colander, rinse with hot water to get rid of excess grease, drain. Place meat in the crockpot (Don't turn the crockpot on until the rest of the ingredients are done).
