Ingredients

Servings:
7
  • 1 lb ground buffalo meat
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 1 cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14 oz)
  • 1 can red kidney beans (15 oz), drained and rinsed

  • 2 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Brown the Meat

    In a large pot, brown the ground buffalo meat over medium heat until fully cooked.

    Break up the meat with a spatula for even cooking.
  2. Sauté Vegetables

    Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the pot. Sauté until vegetables are soft.

    Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Add Tomatoes and Beans

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, kidney beans, and black beans.

    Rinse beans to reduce sodium content.
  4. Spice It Up

    Add chili powder, cumin, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper to the pot.

    Adjust spices according to your heat preference.
  5. Simmer

    Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 30 minutes.

    This allows flavors to meld together.
