Crockpot Cheeseburger Chili

This chili is great!  Its easy and has tons of flavor.  There are also many ways you can alter this recipe to make it your own.  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
-1 lb. ground meat {I have used turkey and beef, although last time I used a bacon pork sausage; all are great!}

-1 onion, finely diced
-14 oz. tomato sauce or spaghetti sauce
-7 oz. can fire roasted diced tomatoes {or 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes with a sprinkle of liquid smoke; found near bbq sauce in the grocery store, I find its usually on the top shelf}
-1 packet of chili seasoning {I use 1/4 cup Homemade Chili Seasoning}
-1/4 cup ketchup
-2 tbsp prepared yellow mustard {or Dijon}
-2 tbsp brown sugar
I used 1 pint crushed tomatoes, plus a sprinkle liquid smoke
and 1 pint green tomato pasta sauce from
our garden in place for the tomato sauce and fire roasted tomatoes.
Optional Toppings:
-shredded cheese
-sour cream or plain greek yogurt
-diced fresh tomatoes
-thinly sliced green onion or other diced onion
-thin sliced fresh jalapeno

3. Add tomato/spaghetti sauce and tomatoes.  Mix well.
4. Add ketchup, mustard and brown sugar.
5. Add chili powder and mix well.
