This is a family favourite, and my mom has agreed to teach us how to make her famous slow cooker beef and bean chilli!
Chili or chilli? American Spelling is chili. International English spelling is chilli.
Ingredients:
- 1 package of Chilli Mix (~32g). We like the hot 'n spicy mix. In Canada, we use "Club House". In the USA, you can use McCormick.

- 2 pepperoni sticks cut up (or 4 to 8 pieces cut up)
- 1 large can red kidney beans (796mL or 28 oz) ... mostly drained
- 1-2 tsp chilli powder and pepper
Recipe:
- Fry the beef in a skillet. Dump it into the slow cooker. Save the juices.

- Drain most of the liquid from the kidney beans and dump into the slow cooker.
