Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain excess grease and transfer the beef to the crockpot.

To the crockpot, add the diced tomatoes (with their juice), tomato sauce, drained kidney beans, black beans, and beef or chicken broth.
Step 4
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 5
Cover the crockpot with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours. Stir occasionally if possible, to ensure even cooking and blending of flavors.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving.
Step 7
Ladle the chili into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, diced green onions, or crushed tortilla chips. Serve hot and enjoy!
