This jerk Turkey Chili recipe is the perfect weeknight dinner. It has the right amount of spice to add some excite everyone. make it today.

When I posted the Jerk Chicken chili someone actually asked me why I make chili during the summer months. That’s easy- I live in a state with unpredictable weather. If you visit Florida on vacation you would think- it is so nice and summer all the time. That is not true- this is what the weather looks like most of the time:

7-8 am mosquitos are on the attack

8-10 am HOT

10-12 am HOTTER

12-2 pm SUPER HOT like 105 degrees

2-4  pm Thunderstorm out of nowhere

4-6 pm overcast but HOT again. Like didn’t we just have hurricane strength winds and rain?

6-8 pm mosquitos are on the attack again

I am so loving my slow cooker. Because most recipes are fail proof and you only have to put forth a little effort in the beginning. And presto- a magical meal is made. What can I say, I’m lazy(ish).

Ever since I was a small child my mom has made soup whenever it rains. It is comforting. When I first had chili it was in a can. It was gross. I never wanted to try it again. Then fast forward to college and I realized that I had to pay for my own food and cook it too. Chilis became my go-to meal. I could toss the ingredients in a pot and return to studying. Because in the words of my spirit animal “ Ain’t nobody got time for that”.
