Crockpot Black Bean Chili

Sharing is caring!

 

My Chili recipe has stood the test of time. I’ve been making this chili for more than 40 years.

When I was learning to cook I would follow the directions explicitly on the back of the Chile-O seasoning packet. As my cooking skills improved, my recipes tend to evolve. This is my own recipe creation for canned black bean chili. My family always loves this meal.

My easy black bean chili recipe is for folks like me who do not care for spicy hot food. The most heat in my ingredients is the chili powder. This recipe does not come out so hot that it burns your tongue or makes your eyes water. 

What to Serve with Chili

My hubby loves having Pimento Cheese Sandwiches with Chili and now I enjoy that combo too. Most of the time we just stick with having some good old-fashioned homemade Cornbread with our chili. Saltines and Oyster Crackers are also good. Whatever you have on hand!

Chili with a dollop of sour cream and shredded cheese

Chili is delicious as is but we also enjoy adding a dollop of sour cream and some shredded sharp cheese as toppings. If you can take the heat and you didn’t add hot sauce to the recipe, you could sprinkle some hot peppers on top!

Freezer Option: Prepare according to directions. Allow to completely cool. Spoon into Freezer safe containers according to your preferred serving size. To prepare, thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Heat and serve!
