Whether you’re a Steelers or a Cards fan, chili is a tasty way to tame your hunger so you can focus on yelling at the screen and second guessing the coach.
Slow Cooker Super Bowl Chili
2 lbs. ground beef
2 16 oz. cans kidney beans, drained
2 14 oz. cans tomatoes, chopped
1 white onion
1 red bell pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbs. chili powder
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. coarse salt
1 tsp. parsley
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. cumin
1 poblano pepper, chopped
In a skillet with a drizzling of olive oil, saute half the chopped onion and one clove minced garlic. Brown the ground beef (adding salt and pepper to taste) with the onion and garlic and drain. Mix all the ingredients into a slow cooker and put it on high for an hour. Change the heat to low and leave in the pot for 5 hours.
If you want to get fancy, serve the chili in individual biscuit bowls or as a topping for burgers, fries and hot dogs.
