I love making this Slow Cooker Pork chili all year round.

During the cold months it is super comforting and warm and during the warm months, it is a great meal that doesn't require heating up the house since it is made in a crock-pot!

This slow cooker meal is as easy as adding a pork loin and a handful of simple ingredients into the crock-pot and a few hours later, you've got a hearty pork meal!

What I love about this easy chili recipe, other than the taste, of course, is that there is no browning meat required. No sweating onions. Nothing but about 5 or so minutes of easy prep.

Just an easy crockpot dump meal!

Sorry, I actually hate the term "dump meal" but I've said what I've said.

I used a pre-marinated bacon pork loin filet but you can change up the flavor profile by choosing a different marinated pork. The garlic and herb could work out great!

I think most people hear "pork chili" and they assume it's a chili verde. Don't get me wrong, I love a green chili as much as the next but this isn't it!

You know what else is good? A White Turkey Chili or Pork Pozole Verde to change things up!

This recipe is so hands off it will leave you with plenty of time to make a homemade Loaded Guacamole Recipe for topping the chili when it is done!

Ingredients

pork loin filet - pre-marinated
onion - sweet onion
spices - chili powder, oregano, coriander, smoked paprika
tomatoes - canned diced tomatoes with chilies
beef broth
beans - black beans

Instructions

Spray the slow cooker with non-stick spray or use a crock-pot liner (for easy clean up).

Add all ingredients to the slow cooker. Cover and set timer.

Once the timer is done, indicating the cooking is done, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred with two forks or a set of those weird looking meat shredding claws.

Return the pork back to the slow cooker. That's it!

Seriously, that's it. You can serve it right away or if your slow cooker has a "warm" function, set it to warm until ready to serve.

Cook's Note: This slow cooker pork chili re-heats perfectly the next day and I swear, the flavors might even seem a bit better after chilling out together for a day.
