Texas-style green chile chili with bacon, beef, pork, and whole green chiles. Simmers for 2 hours until thick and smoky, finished with pinto beans.

About half of the beans I used were chili beans. And I used a Guinness beer. I (roughly) seeded the jalapenos and this was surprisingly still spicy. A cheap cut of beef works quite well; the beef chunks get so tender and this is an overall delicious dish. I froze half of it.

Apple cranberry pork roast: pork slow-cooked over onions and apples in a spiced, sweet-tart cranberry sauce until fork-tender. A cozy, hands-off fall Sunday supper from the crockpot.

My family loved this meatloaf! I used hot Italian turkey sausage and italian breadcrumbs; also, made the sauce with red wine. The leftovers were eaten before going to bed. It's a winner.
