We can now officially say that our Bold and Spicy Buffalo Chili is the BEST...at least at the ward chili cook off. We thought it was good, but we were totally surprised when we took the Best All Around Chili Award! There were about 25 awesome entries (we especially liked a great white chili with turkey - yum!). There were 4 award categories...heartiest, spiciest, most unique and best all around. We won a yummy pumpkin loaf with caramel to drizzle over it (see pic above) Here is our award-winning recipe...I still can't believe we won!
Bold and Spicy Buffalo Chili
Ingredients
• 12 oz tomato paste
• 16 oz tomato sauce

• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 whole red habenero (de-veined, seeded and diced)
• 5 jalapeños (de-veined, seeded and diced)
• 1 pound bottom round steak ½” cubed (easier to cube if slightly frozen)

Directions
Sauté the onion, garlic, jalapenos and habanero in a small amount of olive oil until the onions are translucent. Meanwhile place the tomato paste, tomato sauce, chopped tomatoes, kidney beans, garlic powder, cumin, parsley, oregano, salt, black pepper, Chipotle chili powder, Ancho chili powder, and beef stock in a large crock pot. Add the onion, garlic and pepper mixture to the crock pot. Brown the cubed steak, ground buffalo and ground beef in a large skillet. Drain the meat. Add the browned beef and buffalo mixture to the crock pot. Mix thoroughly. Slow cook in the crock pot all day. Serve with grated cheese, sour cream and chopped green onions.

It was fabulous, you guys...It was unanimously the best one. ;)
We would LOVE the molten lava cake recipe! ;)
I have been dying for some good chili! I will certainly be trying out this receipe asap!
The receipe won't cut and paste. Could you e-mail it to me? Would it still turn out if I left out the buffalo?
It was very DELICIOUS....of course everything you make is AWESOME!
How spicy is it? The habanero and jalapenos give me pause, not for myself, but for the hot-averse in my family.
That does sound quite tasty! I may have to try that one out!
