When it's cold outside the crockpot comes out and the smell of Chili fills the air. This chili does not have the "hot" flavor to it but rather a sweet chili taste.

Notes

*Seasoning Base*
-A base seasoning is always nice to have in a recipe. And it should be left up to the cook on how much of that seasoning should be added to such recipe.
-We always use 1-2tsp garlic powder, 1-2tsp onion powder and 1-2tsp pepper as a seasoning base in all of our recipes. Then add additional seasoning depending on what we are cooking.
