This delicious sausage and turkey chili recipe comes together quickly and simmers in the slow cooker until dinnertime! Tons of flavor without a lot of heat so it’s kid-friendly too!Â

This has been my go-to recipe for eight years. It is loosely based off of my favorite Boilermaker Chili recipe, minus the heat keep it family friendly, and less meat. The sage sausage and variety of herbs and spices make it mild enough for children, and flavorful for adults!

This recipe sounds and looks delicious. I like the combo of turkey and sage sausage. Sounds great on a cold winter day!
It is definitely chili season and we love trying new varieties. This looks delicious!

I am ready to dig in! I love sausage and could eat it for every meal. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. I haven’t heard of Luck’s beans before now. I will have to see if they carry them down here in Florida.
