Halloween has traditionally been chili night in my family. Typically there are a few last minute mishaps trying to get costumes to fit, so a chili simmering in the slow cooker is the only part of my day that’s not scary. I know my kids are going to consume way too much sugar, so I prepare this slow cooker chili ahead of time and fill them up before they head out on their door-to-door adventures.
This all-American chili uses beef chuck roast and Italian sausage to give it a robust flavor that will warm up your witches and warlocks before the haunting begins. You probably have most of the ingredients in the pantry already, taking the trick out of this dinner treat.
