Slow Cooker Beef Roast Chili

This slow cooker beef roast chili is super delicious and easy to make! The beef roast gets cooked slowly so it gets super tender, like melt in your mouth tender. The hunks of roast that you find are like little nuggets of treasure.

The beans and spices are also super flavorful and have layers that naturally happen when you cook them slowly in the crock pot. The addition of molasses gives this recipe an added depth of flavor, along with the paprika and chili powder.

I like to use 3 different types of beans in this recipe because it adds textural, flavor and visual different. This recipe is hearty and thick, if you want a thinner chili then you can add an additional cup of stock, instructions for that are in the recipe below.

This chili will store in your refrigerator for about 5 days and it gets better with the days because the ingredients marinate even more. It can also be frozen and defrosted later.
