Mom's Easy Comfort Food Chili

"Now I take my chili seriously, but sometimes I'm in the mood for something easy and mild. This recipe of my Mother's scratches that itch for me. Serve with some fresh crusty bread and hot sauce on the side for your spicy chili lovers. I make a double batch of this on occasion and throw it in the crock pot. If you do, just throw it in on your warm setting after cooking is complete. Enjoy!"

  1. The pork and beans reminded me of the why my mom use to make her chili. I know my husband will give this '10 stars' tonight, since it is not a spicy hot chili. When you need something fast, this recipe is the one. I think I had it made in 20 minutes. Made during * Zaar World Tour 5* 2009 game for team *Genies of Gourmet*
     
  2. Super fast! Super easy! You're right, Slim. Sometimes we need fast & easy comfort food & my family called this one a 5 star all the way. Made as directed, down to the brand names. We do prefer our chili spicy but we can also appreciate mild chilis. Athough this recipe is really good it tasted more like sweet baked beans instead of a chili. Thanks for sharing your mom's recipe, slim! Made & enjoyed for ZWT5-Ali Baba's Babes.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

From the heart of Steeler Country, I have fun feeding family (2 young boys) and friends. Lots and lots of friends during the football season (I did mention Steeler Country right?). Happiness is a big brother to drive you where you need to go... <img src="http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d65/simdog/SB029-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> I am partial to grilling and smoking (probably partly because it's an excuse to be outside) but enjoy all cooking except pastries and breads (I'm an expert in the art of making hockey pucks). I am an avid angler (trout mostly). I follow Steelers football and Penguins hockey religiously. The Pirates have sucked since I was a kid so baseball doesn't get any love in this family. :) I work as a technical consultant for a software company and my wife is a stay at home Mom. I only review recipes I like, so yes, I give out a disproportionate number of 5 star reviews. I don't see the value in bashing a recipe that just doesn't suit my taste. It doesn't benefit anyone. Thanks for checking out my AM page! <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp340/northwestgal/zwtbanner-small-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
