CHIPOTLE-BLACK BEAN CHILI

This thick slow-cooked chili is special to me because it cooks itself while I'm at work. My family and friends love it. It's really nice served with corn bread. -Patricia Nieh, Portola Valley, California

BEEF AND BLACK BEAN CHILI WITH TOASTED CUMIN CREMA (BOBBY FLAY)



Beef and Black Bean Chili With Toasted Cumin Crema (Bobby Flay) image

I posting this recipe to save it. My husband got this recipe out of Maxim Magazine. We made it to the best of our ability but we had to make substitutions because we just couldn't find some of the chili powders. We ended up just using 5 Tbs. of commercial chili powders in place of the 3 Tbs. of ancho chili powder, 1 Tbs. pasilla chili powder, and 1 Tbs. ground cumin. It was still very good. We also substituted ground buffalo for about 1/2 of the beef. Then we made it extra fancy pants... we topped it with the cumin crema, sliced avocado and apple smoked Gruyere.
