Carol's Crock Pot Chili
This is a highly adjustable recipe.
Pour 1 jar of chunky ragu or prego spagetti sauce in a pot. Add one container of Jack Daniels BBQ sauce (i think i used the spicy or the smokehouse kind, depends on what flavor you're shooting for). add 2 cans (20 oz each) of red kidney beans buy a couple of the make your own chili packets in the grocery store in the spice & packet aisle - add them to the pot. add two cans of tomato paste (less if you don't like it thick). add a couple of pounds of slightly browned lean meat. I used venison, turkey or chicken, but beef is fine too. I used to set it up at night say 9 at night, and cook on low til the next morning. Take a serving or two for lunch. The rest I would freeze in lunchsize bowls for some other time. This makes a lot, you could probably half the recipe and still have a lot to eat.
