Slow Cooker Chipotle Chili

Recipesfull introduces to you: Pork Recipes. (Slow Cooker Chipotle Chili). My friend Keni's love of smokey chipotle peppers inspired this recipe. It comes together perfectly and is a unique chili that will stand out against others. It is a spicy chili that at the same time is mellow. It gives you the kick without the lingering burn like many chilis do.
