Notes
Adjust the quantity of chili used based on the size of the sweet potatoes. Usually, my large sweet potatoes require a 'chili refill' 3/4 of the way through. I recommend having 1.5 cups of chili available per large sweet potato.
Because I use the large-sized sweet potatoes, I find that my slow cooker is more energy efficient and requires less oversight than alternate methods. The sweet potatoes are cooked in 3 hours on high heat and 6-7 hours on low heat. Alternate options include baking them in a convection oven, microwave oven or instant pot.
