To me, slow-cooker chili is one of those all-time comfort food classics. It may be my Midwest roots but that chili was always a staple at Halloween or block parties when I was grown up,, and I continue hat traction every Halloween today. Bison is lean and full of flavour, and this recipe is a great alternative to a traditional beef chili. This is a perfect dish to prep ahead of time and then let cook all day in the slow cooker.
