Brown the meat with the onions and garlic. Season the meat with some salt and pepper and chili seasoning. Once that is browned and drained if necessary, transfer to the crockpot.
Melt half a stick of butter in the same pan you browned the meat in, then add in the green peppers and celery. Saute them until the veggies soften and change color.
Rinse and drain the beans. Combine all ingredients in the crock pot and simmer on low for 4 hours or high for 2.
