Frozen Home Chili
"I made this chili with my wife and son when it was so cold outside that all of our doors were frozen and we could not get out of the house for over a day. Luckily, we had all of the ingredients we needed for our chili and started preparing it in the morning. We let the chili sit in the slow cooker for about 6 hours and then we ate it together for dinner and watched some classic movies for the rest of the night. This was one of the best days of my life!"
