This crockpot chili is full of flavor, it makes alot, but my serving sizes are bigger than most (I do have a problem with portion control!!). The rub thats included with this recipe is a dry rub that has many uses, it is extremely good on a Porterhouse, be creative and play around adjusting the spices to your liking. Read more ENJOY!!
