Last-Minute Chili
This chili might take a while to actually cook, but the prep time is negligible and the cooking can take place overnight unsupervised.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 8 hours
Total Time 8 hours 15 minutes
Servings 7
Ingredients
- 2 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 can Manwich Sloppy Joe Mix 26.5 ounces
- 1 can dark red kidney beans 15.5 ounces
- 1 beef bouillon cube
- 1 packet chili seasoning
Instructions
-
Pour the sloppy joe mix into your slow cooker. Slowly tear off bits of the beef and mix it in.
-
Rinse your kidney beans off well, then mix them in too.
-
Run the tap until the water is steaming hot. Fill the can from the sloppy joe mix 1/4 of the way full. Put the beef bouillon cube in the can, and swirl the water around to collect the stray sauce. Give the cube a little time to dissolve a bit, at least until the water is a dark brownish-red. Pour into the slow cooker. If any beans or meat stick out above the water, use a spoon to push them down. The liquid should just cover everything.
-
Put the cooker on low and let cook for approximately 7 hours.
-
After 7 hours, add the chili seasoning, stirring it in thoroughly, and continue to simmer on low for another hour.
-
Serve on hamburger buns, steak rolls, or tacos. Optionally, add land-o-lakes sprinkle-on sharp cheddar cheese or kraft grated American cheese if available.
