Chili Recipe
Here is a sure crowd pleaser. This is a chili recipe that can be cooked either on the stove or in a slow cooker/crock pot. My Dad always made the best chili, but he refused to put tomatoes in it. I personally love tomatoes in my chili recipe. He, on the other hand, thinks it is crazy to add tomaotes to your chili. So, I have taken his recipe and made it more Chef Bek friendly.
Happy Eating!
Ingredients:
