Chipotle Shredded Beef Chili
I love using leftover meat to make soups and stews. Leftover chipotle shredded beef makes a great beef chili.
Ingredients
- 5 slices of bacon fried and crumbled
- 1 onion diced
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 2 garlic cloves diced
- 3 cups Shredded Chipotle Beef
- 1 can tomato sauce 15 oz can
- 1 can diced tomatoes 15 oz can
- 1 can of baked beans 15 oz can
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 to 2 teaspoons chili powder taste for heat preference
- Serve with cornbread and top with onions shredded cheese, sour cream or your normal chili toppings.
Instructions
- Fry bacon in the stock pot you plan on making your chili. I cut the bacon into pieces before frying. Remove once it is crisp leaving grease in pan.
- Add onion, green pepper and garlic to bacon grease. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the peppers begin to just be soft.
- Add the shredded beef to the vegetables in bacon grease. Stir to combine and cook till meat is no longer cold if using leftover meat.
- Pour tomato sauce, diced tomatoes and beans to pot. Add reserve bacon to the chili. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Add chili powder tasting for heat as you add a little at a time.
- Simmer for 15 minutes or until ready to eat.
