Cheater Chili

Nothing beats a warm bowl of chili cooked in a crock pot for a few hours on a mid winter's day.  Now I'll admit I cheat and use Bear Creek's "darn good" chili mix as a base.  I'll add a pound of browned ground beef a chopped green pepper garlic and some crushed red pepper.  Throw it in the Crock-pot for 6-8 hours and enjoy.
