Slow Cooked Tex-Mex Chili


From the Kitchen of:  Pepper

Store any leftover chili, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. It makes a quick lunch or supper.

Place the beef, onions and garlic in a large no-stick skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until the meat is browned and the vegetables are tender. Drain the mixture in a strainer or colander, then transfer it to a large plate lined with paper towels. Blot the top of the mixture with additional paper towels, then return it to the skillet.

In a 6-quart Crockery Pot or other slow cooker, stir together the tomato sauce, salsa, chili powder, vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and pepper. Stir in the beef mixture, beans and corn. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 9 hours.
