Montana Elk Chili
This elk chili recipe has been adjusted and improved for many years. Nothing has to be exact, though. Experiment! We often put three times as much chili powder and add some powdered powdered chipotle to it. Ingredients:
1 lb. ground elk (or chopped) ½ chopped sauteed onion 2- 16 oz. can beef broth (or 4 cups homemade venison broth) 1-15 oz. can chopped stewed tomatoes 2 –16 oz. can Pinto Beans 1 -16 oz. can Black Beans 1 Tbs. flour to thicken ½ tsp. minced garlic 1 Tb. chili powder 2 tsp. Cumin 1 Tbs. chopped fresh cilantro Salt to taste
Cook meat and onions together in pot until meat is browned. Add flour to cold broth, stir out lumps, pour into meat and onion mixture. Add beans and tomatoes. Add all spices, more or less according to personal taste. Simmer for at least two hours. Chili is great served over rice, or with cornbread. Pass around some grated cheddar cheese and fresh diced onion in separate bowls at the table, if desired, to top the chili with.
