Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds ground bison
- 1 tablespoon THC olive oil (dose as per your tolerance)
- 12 ounces tomato paste
- 1 bottle lager beer (extra for the chef!)
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 Serrano peppers, seeded and minced
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 16 ounces low sodium beef or vegetable stock
- 2 bay leaves
- Shredded white cheese (for garnish)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Base:
In a large pot, heat the THC oil over medium heat. Add the ground bison, season lightly with salt, and brown until cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
Vegetable Mix:
To the pot, add the onions, garlic, and Serrano peppers, cooking until the onions are translucent. Follow with the carrots and corn, sautéing for a few more minutes to blend the flavors.
Simmer:
Stir in the tomato paste and half of your beer, mixing well. Add the kidney beans, bay leaves, and beef or vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let cook, covered, for about 4 hours, stirring occasionally.
Finishing Touches:
Remove the bay leaves. If the chili is too thick, adjust its consistency with additional stock or water.
Serve:
Ladle the chili into bowls, and top each with a generous sprinkle of shredded white cheese and a pinch of fresh parsley.
This bison chili isn’t just a meal; it’s a full sensory journey that highlights the essence of fall with every bite. Its deep flavors and hearty texture make it an excellent centerpiece for a festive meal or a comforting dish for a relaxed evening. The THC infusion is thoughtfully measured to ensure that it enhances rather than overwhelms the natural robustness and spice of the chili, creating a perfect symphony of flavors that will impress and satisfy.
