Pivot Farm Chili

We have made this chili using ground beef, venison, buffalo, and turkey and they are all amazing. Use whichever ground meat you prefer. This makes an amazing mild base chili that you can add spice to as you see fit .

If using dried beans:

  • Soak beans overnight in fresh water. Leave in water until one hour before you would like to make the chili.
  • Drain from water they were soaking in and place in a large pot with fresh water. Boil beans for 1 hour to soften before starting the chili. Drain and add to chili.

Top with cheese and or sour cream, or serve however you enjoy eating chili normally.
