*break up beef into small chunks; place in foil pan.

Cook beef halfway then add beans and finish heating.
Makes it's own gravy but better buy 85% or better lean or it'll be too greasy.

Slow Cooker: Chili Con Carne

Recipe and picture by me (Petra)

This recipe is for a 4-5 qt. slow cooker so if you want to cook it in a Burton you will have to adjust the amounts down.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 onion
minced garlic
1 can stew tomatoes
ketchup
2 cans pinto beans
2 cans red beans
2 cans black beans
(pick any beans you like; these are what I always use)
chili powder
salt
pepper
cumin powder
1 cup water or 1 can chicken broth (do NOT add if you are not adding rice in later or it will be too much liquid)
tobasco sauce
red pepper flakes
rice (pre-cooked Uncle Bens for microwave; optional) or other if you like

Put the ground beef in the slow cooker, drain the beans and add those. Chop up the onion and add. Then add garlic to taste (I always add 1 spoon). Add 2 spoons chili powder, 1 spoon cumin powder, half a cup ketchup, salt and pepper and red pepper flakes to taste.
Add everything in the slow cooker except tobasco sauce and rice! Let it cook on high for 5-6 hours. The last 15 minutes if you like, add the rice to the pot to let it warm through but no longer as the liquid will soak into the rice and might get too dry!! Then when done, add tobasco sauce if you like it spicier and maybe add grated cheese too  Enjoy!!
