Bison Sweet Potato Chili

Say hello to my little friend:
Bison Sweet Potato Chili. 
Hot bowl of chili


There are almost no words for this one... A hint of spicy, a hint of sweet... It is good enough that I have been making this and eating it weekly, and it is Summer time here.

Truly, if I could marry a meal, this would be it. 

 MmmmHmmm. That good.
Awwww yeeeeah. Shit just got real. Let's dive right in.

Here's what you need:
  • 1/2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
  • 1 lb pound ground bison 
  • 1 lb 90-93% lean ground beef
  • 1 diced onion 
  • 2 bell peppers, chopped  
  • 1 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into small cubes 
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes, not drained 
  • 1.5 cups beef stock 
  • 1.5 Tbsp fresh garlic, minced 
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar (optional) 
  • 1 Tbsp chili powder 
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp sea salt 
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper


  1. Cook ground meats thoroughly in large pot, until no longer pink. Add onion and  peppers and cook 3 minutes.
  2. Add all other ingredients and stir well.  
  3. Cover and reduce heat to low or a slight simmer. Cook 45 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender enough to stick a fork through. Taste test and add more seasoning to taste, if needed.  Serve and enjoy!
NOTE: If you like your chili a bit thicker, go ahead and thicken it up a bit with some cornstarch and cold water. 😉
