Chili is definitely one of my most favorite dishes to cook during the cold winter months. Not only does it warm you up, but it warms up the house and smells amazing while it's simmering away on the stove. I've made a lot of pots of chili over the years, from the traditional beef chili to white chicken chili and so much more. Recently I gave my chili a smoky kick with the addition of chipotle powder and it was a huge hit with my family. The chipotle adds a little bit of spice, but a lot of richness and flavor.

Of course my favorite beef to use in all of my dishes is Certified Angus Beef. The quality, the taste, and the wonderful families that raise the cattle are all reasons why I love and trust the CAB brand so much. From the juiciest and most tender steaks to beautifully marbled roasts, they take pride in everything they produce.

This Smoky Chipotle Beef Chili is made with CAB ground beef, lots of veggies, beans, and plenty of spices. It's got a little kick, but not too much. It's perfect for kids and adults alike. And hey if you like a lot of spice, feel free to add more chipotle powder to your chili, or add in a diced jalapeno. I've got a son who can't take much heat so I keep it on the milder side for him.
