#SundaySupper~Smoky Slow-Cooker Venison Chili

Happy #SundaySupper!

This week the #SundaySupper group has a very special guest, Lee Woodruff, the author of Those We Love Most and a CBS This Morning contributor. This week?s theme is all about comfort food, and who doesn?t enjoy some good old soul soothing food?

For me, comfort food is nostalgic. It warms your heart and evokes memories of childhood, loved ones, past events, triumphs, and ?the good ol? days.? It?s the spaghetti pie my great-grandmother used to make, my mom?s pot roast, or my Grandmom?s sugar cookies. It?s all the food I grew with as a child and still look forward to as an adult.

My brother recently murdered his very first deer. I know, ?murdered? sounds harsh, but either way you look at it, the deer is dead. Personally, I don?t have the heart to kill Bambi. One look from those big doe eyes, and I?m no more good. The deer would end up with a hug and a pat on its fluffy little deer tail. What can I say, I?m a lover.

In honor of my brother?s first deer, I made smoky venison chili. This chili is hearty. This chili is smoky. This chili is, to quote my brother, ?Amazing!?

This chili screams comfort food. It?s full of tender chunks of venison, smoky chipotle peppers, smoked paprika, creamy kidney beans, and a generous helping of bell peppers and onions.

I may not suit up and go all caveman-style and fetch my own food, however, I will let my little brother do the dirty work for me. Eh, that?s what boys are for, right? My job is to cook the food and feed the hungry. That?s it. Besides, stilettos and mud don?t mix.

Ready for the best part? This chili is made in the slow-cooker. All you have to do is brown the venison, then dump all the ingredients in the crockpot. Viola, delicious chili made easy.

Enjoy!
