Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Slice onion into small pieces (not diced).
  2. Brown ground beef, sliced onions, black pepper. Drain any excess grease.
  3. Turn slow cooker on low and add: tomato juice, diced tomatoes, kidney beans, chili powder. (I start with about 3Tbs. of chili powder and sometimes add additional dashes to taste after it's cooked a while.) Add ground beef mixture after meat is cooked & drained.
  4. Cook on low in slow cooker stirring occasionally 4 to 5 hours for best flavor throughout. Serve with crackers or over corn bread. (It fills up a 4-qt slow cooker, so I prepare in my 5-qt. slow cooker).
  5. * Variations I've tried. Try any one or a mix of them. 1. Add 1 medium green pepper, sliced. 2. Do you like lots of beans in your chili? Add a second can of kidney beans. Don't like beans? Leave them out. 3. Change up the flavor by using the various flavored diced tomatoes. 4. Want a little more spice, substitute the black pepper for cayenne pepper when browning the ground beef.
