    Easy Hearty Slow Cooker Pork and Beef Chili

    After coming home from pretty much three trips back to back, I’ve been dying for a hearty home cooked meal. While it was fun eating takeout and at restaurants, I was really craving something that reminded me of home. When I got back from my trips, I was practically working non-stop so it was back to take out and fast food. Finally the other night I had a chance to run out to my local Loblaw and picked up some items so I could make myself a nice easy hearty pork and beef chili!

    Heart Pork and Beef Chili Recipe

    I seriously love grocery stores that are opened 24 hours since 1. no lines late night and 2. I was able to get my groceries in the evening. Anyways, I usually have the ingredients for chili on hand but I had used it all up for my last batch.

    Heart Pork and Beef Chili Recipe

    For this recipe, I use both ground pork and ground beef because two meats makes it twice as delicious right? Ha! Anyways, the first time I made chili, I only had 1 pound of each meat so I threw them in together. I ended up enjoying it so that’s just how I make mine now ;)

    For this recipe, you’ll need a big wok or a deep pan if you plan on browning your ingredients before placing it into your slow cooker. I used the Stay or Go Programmable 5 Quart Slow Cooker from Hamilton Beach and a large metal wok. Once again, the slow cooker is my favourite since I can just spend 15 minutes before bed prepping then set it for 8 hours aka I’ll wake up with delicious chili!

    Anyways, enough of my chit chat, here’s my go-to hearty pork and beef chili recipe!

    • 1 tablespoon of cumin
    • 1.5 tablespoon of paprika
    • 4 tablespoon of chilli powder, and then I freehanded some more
    • 1 onion chopped
    • 6 garlic cloves, finely diced
    • salt and pepper

    Instructions

    • In a pan, put in your onion, garlic, and dry seasoning for around 3 minutes before putting in the pork and beef.
    • Cook the meat (don't forget to break it up) until lightly browned before transferring it into the slow cooker.
    • Then pour in your beans (3 cans is a lot of liquids so pick one to drain), diced tomato, tomato paste, and add more chilli powder, salt, and pepper if you desire.
    • Set for 8 hours on low.
    • Optional: Grate on cheese and a dollop of sour cream before serving if desired

    Simple right? I know others tend to have more complicated chilis but I like keeping mine simple. Most of the dry ingredients I always have on hand and whenever canned beans are on sale, I tend to stock up! Keeping the recipe simple, I can make it whenever I’m in a pinch and need something for a potluck or am craving something hearty.

      I’ve never put pork into a chili. Most often I used ground turkey.

      It’s the perfect time of year for hearty chili! This recipe looks delicious. I like to change things up with a winter chili. I always make sure though to add a lot of spice! Thanks for sharing!

      I love using my slow cooker for chili. As cold and windy as it is here today, this might be a great recipe to throw in there for dinner tonight.

      I’m super lazy and will buy seasoned canned tomatoes for my chili because then I don’t have to worry about spices and it’s still delicious!

      I loooove chili. Any kind – turkey apple chili, traditional chili, chipotle black bean – we are chili fans in this house, haha. I can’t wait to try yours. I don’t think I’ve ever used pork so I’m excited to try it.

        (that should say I don’t think I’ve ever used pork in a chili – I’ve cooked pork before, lol)
