Total time: 2 h 25 min
Yield: 10 servings (about 2-1/2 quarts).
Cuisine: North America, Mexican
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons canola oil; 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 to 4 pounds), cut into 1-inch cubes; 1 medium onion, chopped; 1 garlic clove, minced; 2 cans (16 ounces each ) chili beans, undrained; 2 cans (10 ounces each) diced tomatoes with mild green chiles, undrained; 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained; 1 cup water; 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules; Chili powder, pepper and cayenne pepper to taste; Optional: Sour cream, tortilla chips and shredded cheddar cheese

In addition to eating this chili the traditional way (with a spoon!), my family likes to scoop bites onto tortilla chips. The leftovers are delicious rolled in tortillas and warmed up. It's so comforting to have a pot simmering when cold Kansas winds are blowing. —Michelle Beran, Claflin, Kansas

So tasty! After browning the pork, I made mine in a slow cooker on low for 8 hours. I probably added 2-3 Tbsp of Chili Powder...may add a bit more next time!
