No beans, no veggie chunks \u2013 just saucy chunks of juicy, tender beef that shreds apart with the lightest pull of a fork. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My friend Ang made this recipe for us years ago, and we\u2019ve always laughed about this recipe that she used because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/food-network-kitchen\/slow-cooker-texas-chili-recipe-1973377\">the 2010 Food Network original<\/a> that she was working from has a full 3\/4 cup of chili powder in it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are not doing the 3\/4 cup of chili powder thing, but I <em>did<\/em> using that old, nostalgic-to-me recipe to build this version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chili is beef, savory, rich and dark, but it\u2019s also mild enough that my two littles love it, especially when dolloped with sour cream, which is one of their favorite food groups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Final pro-tip: I\u2019ve made this into a casserole on more than one occasion, topped with cornbread buttermilk biscuits, and I\u2019ll get that recipe onto the internet very soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full lindsay-sig\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"178\" height=\"52\"

But Texas chili is shredded beef chili that\u2019s traditionally made with just beef, chiles, and spices. No beans, no chunks of extra veggies. Traditionally it\u2019s made with no tomatoes \u2013 the dried chiles and the spices are what makes the saucy base of it. I am using a can of tomatoes here, plus canned chiles instead of dried ones, so this is more of a Texas-style chili vs. a full blown Texas chili. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695750121033\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I use the Instant Pot?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, it will work. I\u2019ve done it and cooked on high pressure for about 60-70 minutes. But I much preferred this in the slow cooker. It just thickens differently, tenderizes the meat differently, and just generally works better.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695750138906\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I cook this in the oven?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, you could bake this in a pot (ideally a Dutch oven). Add 1 \u00bd \u2013 2 cups of water or broth, and bake covered at 300 for 4-5 hours.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695750161989\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can you make this vegetarian \/ meatless? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Here\u2019s a recipe for my favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/pinchofyum.com\/vegetarian-chili\">vegetarian chili<\/a>!<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695750187044\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can you freeze this? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes! You can freeze this before or after cooking.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1695750198746\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can you make this without browning the beef and the veggies first?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. I\u2019ve done it and it\u2019s still delicious! I think for max flavor, the browning is ideal. But if you don\u2019t have time, just toss it in the slow cooker and go!<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/pinchofyum.com\/slow-cooker-texas-style-chili\">Slow Cooker Texas Style Chili<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/pinchofyum.com\">Pinch of Yum<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In This Post Take Me to The Recipe Why I Love This Recipe Video Frequently Asked Questions Ratings Why I Love This Chili Is there any better feeling than walking into your house, when it\u2019s dark (already) at 5pm, and smelling the juicy, spicy, richness of Texas-style chili in the slow cooker?
