Sweet & Spicy Chili
5 steps
Prep:5minCook:30min
My Chili recipe is kind of a spin-off inspired by the "party meatballs" my Mom and my Grandmother made when I was growing up -- frozen meatballs with Chili sauce and Grape Jelly in a crock pot. The combined flavor of the Chili sauce & Grape Jelly always made those meatballs disappear fast at any party. I like using the "HOT" version of the spice packet to balance out the sweetness from the jelly.

Add the diced onion and cook for a few minutes until softened.
