Award Winning Chili Recipe Ingredients
5 slices thick sliced, hardwood hickory smoked bacon
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 small yellow onion, diced
½ - 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 10.5 oz can beef consomme (you can also use beef stock)
1 6 oz can tomato paste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 15 oz. cans diced tomatoes, undrained
1 15 oz. can pinto beans in mild or medium sauce (also called Chili Beans)
1 15 oz. can kidney beans in mild chili sauce
2 pounds ground beef
Crockpot Chili Ingredients - Spices
4 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
3 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon Lawry’s seasoned salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Award Winning Chili Recipe Directions
Prepare the vegetables for the recipe first. Roughly chop the red and green peppers and celery. Seed the jalapeno pepper(s), removing the seeds and membrane, then finely dice. Use more jalapeno for a spicier chili. Peel and dice one small yellow onion.
Cook the bacon in a large cast iron skillet, until the bacon is lightly crisp but not overdone. Remove the bacon and drain on a paper towel lined plate.
Saute the vegetables in the bacon grease for about 5 minutes, until tender. Remove the vegetables from the skillet, draining as much bacon grease from the vegetables as you can. Cook the ground beef in the skillet with the bacon grease. Cook the beef one pound at a time so the meat has enough room to brown and not steam. Break the ground beef into pieces about 1 - 2 inches. When cooked through, remove from the skillet and repeat with remaining meat.
Measure all of the spices into a small bowl, and mix together.
Now it’s time to assemble all of the ingredients into the slow cooker. Mix the beef consomme or beef stock in the crockpot with the tomato paste. Add the Worcestershire sauce and spice mixture, and stir to blend. Taste the mixture and adjust spices as you like. Add the cans of tomatoes and beans, all undrained. Add the beef and sauteed vegetables. Chop or cut the bacon into about ½ inch pieces and add to the crockpot chili mixture. Cover and cook on low for about six hours. I love that this is a crockpot chili recipe! It’s so easy to put together in the morning and have delicious chili ready for dinner!

The SHOCKING SECRET to great chili
Buy my custom chef knife before it sells out again:
***RECIPE***
Cut up some onions and peppers. Cook them in a big pot until soft. Dump in canned crushed or puréed tomatoes and undrained canned beans — roughly equal quantities is a good starting point, though I like extra tomato. Dump in a lot of spices until you like how it tastes — cumin + smoked paprika + oregano + garlic powder is a good basic blend. Simmer for about a half hour. If you want to be fancy, melt in a little dark chocolate. Eat and go do something else with your life.
How To Make Kevin’s Famous Chili from The Office
Scranton’s very own Kevin Malone, er, Brian Baumgartner, actor/comedian from “The Office,” stopped by the MUNCHIES Test Kitchen to make a batch of his famous chili from his new cookbook “Seriously Good Chili Cookbook: 177 of the Best Recipes in the World.”
Brian’s chili, which is inspired by Kevin’s infamous scene from “The Office,” has everything you could want: savory ground beef, ancho chili powder, and a clever secret ingredient (hint: it’s beans from a can).
Brian shares not just his love for this one-pot crowd pleaser, but also what his character Kevin has done to bring joy to so many viewers and the gloriousness of physical comedy. You won’t want to miss this one!

Here's the Easy Weeknight Chili recipe from my first book, The Food Lab:
EASY WEEKNIGHT GROUND BEEF CHILI
Adapted from The Food Lab
Sometimes even the best of us don’t feel like going all out. Here’s a much quicker weeknight chili that uses a few of the tricks learned from my Best Short-Rib Chili (page 259) and the 30-minute bean soup recipes (pages 196–200). I use ground beef here, which precludes real browning as an option, but a couple of smoky chipotle chiles added to the mix lend a similar sort of deep complex- ity. Serve the chili with grated cheddar cheese, sour cream, chopped onions, scallions, sliced jalapeños, diced avo- cado, and/or chopped cilantro, along with corn chips or warmed tortillas.
SERVES 4 TO 6
4 tablespoons unsalted butter2 medium onions, grated on the large holes of a box grater (about 11⁄2 cups)2 large cloves garlic, minced or grated on a Microplane (about 4 teaspoons)1 teaspoon dried oreganoKosher salt2 chipotle chiles packed in adobo, finely chopped2 anchovy fillets, mashed to a paste with the back of a fork1⁄2 cup Chile Paste (page 259) or 1⁄4 cup chili powder1 tablespoon ground cumin1⁄2 cup tomato paste2 pounds boneless ground chuck One 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, drained and chopped into 1⁄2-inch piecesOne 15-ounce can red kidney beans, drained1 cup homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock, or water2 to 3 tablespoons instant cornmeal (such as Maseca)2 tablespoons whiskey, vodka, or brandy (optional)Freshly ground black pepper Garnishes as desired (see the headnote)
1. Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onions, garlic, oregano, and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring fre- quently until the onions are light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the chipotles, anchovies, chile paste, and cumin and cook, stirring, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring until homogeneous, about 1 minute.
2. Add the ground beef and cook, using a wooden spoon to break up the beef into pieces and stirring frequently, until no longer pink (do not try to brown the beef ), about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, beans, stock, and cornmeal and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have developed and the chili is thickened, about 30 minutes.
3. Stir in the whiskey, if using. Serve with some or all of the suggested gar- nishes, along with corn chips or tortillas.
I Made THE MOST Flavorful Chili in Existence!
This slow-cooked smoked brisket chili is the ultimate recipe to show off and share with your family and friends. The flavors in this chili are incredible, especially with the two secret ingredients I put in at the end.
Chili, or chili con carne, is a centuries-old recipe consisting of ground or chopped beef with chilis or chili powder. While the first recipes started to show up in San Antonio, Texas, in the early 18th century, it is said to have been created by the Aztecs in the 16 century. There are also many other stories and tales of how this came to be.
In Texas, it's often called a bowl of red and considered a crime if beans are added. However, beans have become a precondition to chili across America in other states. This classic dish has also been redone throughout the United States as there are several different versions like Cincinnati Chili, White Chicken Chili, or even this brisket chili recipe, among many others.
Chili is always good because it's hearty, can feed a big group of people, and can be altered and customized to fit your flavor profiles. In addition, it's also delicious on hotdogs and Smash Burgers.
