Using lean bison and an aromatic assortment of spices this recipe was offered by the National Bison Association of Denver, CO as a marketing tool in 1998. I picked up the recipe card at a local organic meat co-op. It is a family favorite now. Great for a snowy day. Freezes well for ski or snowmobile trips. Ingredients:
1 lb ground buffalo meat |
1 cup onion (chopped) |
2 teaspoons garlic (minced) |
1 cup green pepper (chopped) |
3 tablespoons chili powder |
2 teaspoons cocoa powder |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon oregano (crush in palm of hand) |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon allspice |
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans tomatoes with juice (chopped or crushed or diced) |
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce |
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans (rinsed and drained) |
1 (15 ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained) |
1 cup water |
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chilies |
Directions:
1. Coat the surface of a large pan with non-stick cooking spray. 2. Saute meat and stir to crumble for 5 minutes. 3. Add onion, garlic, and pepper; cook for another 5 minutes. 4. Mix into the meat mixture; chili powder, cocoa powder, salt, oregano, cinnamon, cumin, pepper, allspice and cook for 2 minutes. 5. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, beans, water, and chilies. 6.
