This chili is perfect for a gathering and would be a wonderful addition to any tailgate. It’s definitely comfort food and hits the spot on a cold day! It’s made in the crock pot which makes it even easier!

This chili is super versatile, you could easily add Rotel Tomatoes instead of the diced tomatoes to give it a little kick. You could add black beans or kidney beans. You could top it with Doritos instead of Fritos. So many options with this recipe. It reheats really well and we all thought the flavor was great.
