- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 lbs Beef Chuck
- 28 ounces canned Crushed Tomatoes
- 14 ounces canned Petite Diced Tomatoes
- 14 ounces Pumpkin Pure
- 2 14 ounce cans Black Beans drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons Cumin
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
Place Olive Oil in a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Season the beef with salt and pepper and lightly brown on all sides. Place into your slow cooker.
Add the Crushed Tomatoes, Diced Tomatoes, Pumpkin Puree, and Black Beans to the slow cooker. Season with Cumin and Cinnamon on top. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 5 to 7.
With about an hour to go if you’d like thicker chili add the Cornstarch and additional Cumin or Cinnamon if needed.
I added Cornstarch to this recipe to thicken it up a bit, however, it is optional.
