When the weather turns cooler, there is nothing I like better than a big bowl of hearty chili. You’ll never miss the beans with this “stick to your ribs” recipe where I blend grass-fed ground beef and sausage for a savory celebration!

Slow-Cooker Alternative

To make in a slow cooker, first sauté the breakfast sausage, beef and onions over high heat for about 5 minutes. Transfer to slow cooker and combine remaining ingredients. Give it a quick stir, cover and cook on low for 5 hours.
