Well we avoided the morning snow they said we could get, still chilly out only about 22 degrees out this morning. But around 2:00 this afternoon it started snowing and we got about 1/2" of snow on the ground but not the roads. It melted about an hour later. Ran a few errands for Mom and finished the laundry for her. Stopped by to see Dad at rehab and back home. Wanted a hot and hearty meal tonight so what better than Crock Pot 3 Bean Buffalo Chili! Absolutely love this stuff!
I had this froze in the freezer so I let it sit the fridge to thaw overnight. It's my last container of the Crock Pot 3 Bean Buffalo Chili so I'll be making a new batch soon. It freezes and reheats great. After heating it up I added a couple of shakes of Frank's Red Hot Sauce and topped it with some fresh grated Dutch Gouda Cheese. For me it gets no better! I'll leave the recipe on how to prepare the Crock Pot 3 Bean Buffalo Chili below.
It’s loaded with nothing bu good things. I use Wild Idea Buffalo’s Ground Buffalo which is the best tasting Ground Buffalo that I’ve found. The 3 Beans I use are 1 Can (15 oz.) Chili Beans, 1 Can (15 oz.) Kidney Beans (rinsed), and 1 Can (15 oz.) Great Northern Beans (rinsed). Then I mix in 1 White Onion (medium Chopped or Minced), 1 Jalapeno Pepper (Unseeded and Chopped), and 3 Cloves Minced Garlic. For my spices I use 1 Packet McCormick Chili Mix, 2 Cans (6 oz.) Hunt’s Tomato Paste, 1 Tbs Ground Cocoa Chili Blend (McCormick), 1/2 Tsp Ground Chipotle Chili Pepper (McCormick), 1 Tbs. Ground Roasted Cumin (McCormick), 2 tbsp Ground Cinnamon (McCormick), 1 Tbs of Cilantro Leaves (McCormick), and 5 Dashes of Frank’s Hot Sauce or to taste (I usually add a lot more dashes!). Throw in a 1/2 cup of Water and put the lid on the Crock Pot and set on low for 5-6 hours. Then you have yourself some good, comfort food Chili! You can serve it many ways; in a bowl or mug and top it with your favorite Cheese or Chopped Green Onions with a side of Oyster Crackers. Another way to have it is served on top of a Johnny Cake (Cornbread) or have a side of Cornbread with it.
