- 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained & rinsed
- 1 (15 oz) can pinto beans, drained & rinsed
- 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
- 1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce

- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup beef broth

Instructions
- Add venison, onion, garlic, and bell pepper to slow cooker. Cook on HIGH 2 hours, breaking up meat with a fork.
- Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper, and broth.
- Cover and cook on LOW 4 hours, or HIGH 2 hours more, until flavors meld and chili thickens.
- Serve hot with desired toppings.
Notes
- For extra depth, sear venison in a skillet first before adding to crockpot.
- 赵 Use turkey or beef if venison isn’t available—but venison is leaner and more flavorful.
- Frozen corn added at the end adds sweetness and texture.
