- My mom used to make this hearty entrée in the winter. I loved the texture of the beans. In high school, I renamed it "Chalky Beans," and that's what my family has called it ever since.
- I modified the ratio of beans to meat so that it uses less meat. In fact, you could add even more beans.
- This recipe tastes even better the second day. Consider making it a day in advance.
- Bison (buffalo) is very lean meat and that makes it a great choice for chili. See nutrition facts and cooking tips here.
- This chili was thrown together with less planning than usual, hence the mixture of beans and the absence of green pepper. I'm going to modify the written recipe to reflect what I recommend (over what I did).
