Author: Generations of Savings
- ½ lb bacon or about 6-8 slices, cut in chunks
- ½ hamburger meat
- ½ pork sausage
- 1 onion finely diced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 1 small jalapeno diced
- 2 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- Kosher salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 1 can of roasted tomatoes 14 oz, you can find the kind with chilies & peppers in it which adds even more flavor
- 16 oz can tomato sauce
- 8 oz can tomato paste
- 3 – 4 tbsp ground coffee I used Community Coffee Dark Blend
- 8 oz of water
Directions:
Brown hamburger meat and sausage, drain. Add to crockpot.
Cook bacon according to directions. Chop into chunks and add to crockpot. Keep bacon grease.
Use bacon grease to saute onion, jalapeno, and bell pepper. Add to crock pot.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the crockpot and cook on high 4 hours or low 8 hours. More water can be added if it seems dry but 8 oz worked well for me.
