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!

Betty's Perky Picante Sauce
Betty demonstrates how to make Perky Picante Sauce. This is a quick and easy sauce that can be used as a dip for tortilla chips or as a sauce for meats and Tex-Mex entrees.
Perky Picante Sauce
½ cup finely-chopped onion
¼ cup finely-chopped green bell pepper
1 medium clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup fresh tomato, peeled and chopped
1 ½ tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno pepper
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon dried ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons white vinegar
8-oz. can tomato sauce
Saute ½ cup chopped onion, ¼ cup chopped green pepper, and 1 minced garlic clove in 1 tablespoon heated olive oil, until vegetables are tender. Combine sautéed vegetables, ½ cup chopped tomato, 1 ½ tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno pepper, ¼ teaspoon dried oregano, ¼ teaspoon dried cumin, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1 ½ teaspoon white vinegar in container of an electric blender. Process for a few seconds, until smooth, but still showing bits of the individual ingredients. Add an 8-oz. can of tomato sauce, and pulse or stir well. Pour into a serving bowl and serve immediately. (You may cover and chill the sauce to serve it cold; also, you may heat it in a small pot, if you prefer to serve it hot. It is very versatile!) I hope you enjoy this Perky Picante Sauce! --Betty

Everyone has a secret for their homemade chili recipe. Here's mine. The ingredients are familiar, but it comes down to dialing up a few key components to get the depth and perfect balance of flavors we're looking for. Yes, I'm confident enough to say perfect. The result is a deeply flavored, complex, beefy chili that is worth the extra time.

Free printable recipe is available on our site:
Servings 4-6 servings
Ingredients:
Slow-Cooked Pork Belly:
2.2 lb (1Kg) rindless pork belly slices chopped in half (each piece being approx. the length of your index finger)
4 1/4 cups (1 Litre) hot chicken/veg stock
1 thumb sized piece of ginger peeled and finely chopped (or 1 tbsp of minced ginger)
3 cloves garlic peeled and chopped in half
1 tbsp. rice wine
1 tbsp. caster sugar
Glaze:
2 tbsp vegetable oil
pinch of salt and pepper
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger peeled and minced
1 red chilli finely chopped
2 tbsp Honey
2 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp lemon grass paste
To Serve:
Boiled rice
Green Vegetables
Instructions:
1. Add all the slow-cooked pork belly ingredients to a pan (not the glaze ingredients) I use a cast iron casserole pan.
2. Bring to the boil, then place a lid on, turn down the heat and simmer for 2 hours.
3. Turn off the heat and drain the pork. You can reserve the liquid if you like (Perfect for a Thai or Chinese noodle soup).
4. Chop the pork into bite sized chunks. Add 1 tbsp. of the oil to a frying pan, and then mix the remaining glaze ingredients in a small bowl.
5. Heat the oil and add in the pork, salt and pepper, frying on a high heat until the pork starts to turn golden.
6. Now pour the glaze over the pork and continue to cook until the pork looks dark and sticky.
7. Remove from the heat and serve.
Notes
Can I make it ahead?
Yes, you can make it up to the end of step 2 (where the pork is slow cooked and then drained). Then quickly cool, cover and refrigerate (for up to two days) or freeze. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight before slicing and frying the meat.
You can also make the sauce ahead, then cover and refrigerate it up to a day ahead.
Can I make it Gluten free?
Yes! Replace the soy sauce with tamari. I've done this several times and it works great.Replace the rice wine with sherry (usually gluten free, but best to check).Also make sure you use gluten free stock.
Can I use my slow cooker?
Yes, you can do the first stage in the slow cooker. Cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 6-7 hours. Keep an eye on the level of liquid and top up with a little more if needed.
