Instructions

Step 1

1. **Brown the Meat:**

Step 2

- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef chuck cubes and brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

- In the same skillet, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain the excess fat. Set aside with the chuck beef.

Step 4

2. **Sauté Vegetables:**

Step 5

- In the same skillet, add the diced onions, garlic, red and green bell peppers, and jalapeños. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

3. **Combine Ingredients in Crock Pot:**

Step 7

- Transfer the browned meats and sautéed vegetables into your crock pot.

Step 8

- Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and beef broth. Stir well to combine.

Step 9

4. **Season the Chili:**

Step 10

- Add chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, oregano, cayenne pepper, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 11

5. **Slow Cook:**

Step 12

- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. The longer, the better to let the flavors meld.

Step 13

6. **Final Taste and Adjustments:**

Step 14

- About 30 minutes before serving, taste the chili and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more chili powder or cayenne for extra heat, or a bit more sugar if it’s too acidic.

Step 15

7. **Serve and Enjoy:**

Step 16

- Ladle the chili into bowls and add your favorite toppings like shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, green onions, and fresh cilantro. Serve with cornbread or crushed tortilla chips on the side.
