I am not a fan of kidney beans, but I love chili and bacon. I tried switching out the beans with the bacon using my moms chili recipe, and it was an instant hit with the family. After a couple years of tweaking the recipe to get it just right and taking it to chili cook-offs, heres what I came up with. Serve with your favorite chili mix-ins such as Cheddar cheese, Fritos, etc. Hope you enjoy
Bacon Chili Without Beans Ingredients
2 pounds ground beef
1 (16 ounce) package thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 (14.5 ounce) cans petite diced tomatoes, drained
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
cup beef stock
2 medium onions, chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
cup hot sauce (such as Franks RedHot)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

How to Make Bacon Chili Without Beans
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Transfer beef to a slow cooker.
Brown bacon in the same skillet, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Transfer bacon to the slow cooker and stir with beef.
Add diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef stock, onions, bell pepper, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic to the slow cooker; stir together with beef and bacon. Add chili powder, cayenne pepper, oregano, salt, cumin, basil, paprika, and black pepper; stir again to make sure all ingredients are mixed thoroughly.
Cook on Low for 5 hours. Stir and continue to cook for 2 to 3 more hours.
