Notes
HOW TO PREP AHEAD
This chili recipe is so easy to prepare ahead of time. Simply cook the ground beef the night before, measure out all of the spices and sugar, remove all the lids from the cans, and refrigerate.
Let the ground meat cool completely before adding it to an airtight container to refrigerate. Make sure you cover your spices and let them sit on the counter until you are ready
to use them to keep them fresh. Ensure that you add all the canned goods together in a large mixing bowl or container, combine them, and refrigerate. When you are ready to fire up the crockpot, toss everything in combine it all together, and start the slow cooking process.
