Now that fall is here, I have been grabbing my crockpot at least once a week. Crockpot recipes are so easy and delicious! This pumpkin chili recipe is a classic with a fall twist! Hope you enjoy!

Some chili recipes tell you to brown the meat prior to adding it to the crockpot. This is totally up to you!
