Slow cooker chili that takes less than 5 minutes to load, yes please. (Only because I had browned ground beef in the freezer.)

So the pepper is a jalapeno? or a bell pepper? Thanks. It is still in the upper 90’s here in Texas, can’t wait for cool weather so I can make chili and cornbread!!

I cannot get the bag of Hurst Slow Cooker Chili beans and Seasoning in my area, is there something else I can use?

You could substitute a pound of 15 bean soup mix, adding 1/4 t of liquid smoke 1T paprika, 2t chili powder, 2T worseshire, Garlic powder if not adding the real thing. Add tomato products after beans are soft, or last two hours as they sometimes keep beans from softening. I don’t know why this sometimes but it is.
