Here is how you make Mama's Smoky Chili:

1.Char and blister poblano peppers over flame. Put into a large zip lock bag to sweat for 20 minutes, then peel off charred skin, remove stem and seeds, and chop.2. In large pot on medium high heat add ground beef and begin to brown. Add onions, green bell peppers, and fresh garlic. Cook together until meat is browned. 3. Add spices and salt to taste. I add about 1/2 of each spice at this point and taste.4. Add crushed tomatoes, fire roasted tomatoes, chili beans, and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer. Add poblano peppers. Let cook for one hour. 5. After 1 hour check seasoning and adjust as needed. Continue to simmer as the chili reduces. Cook 1-2 more hours. If you like it more liquid based, add water or stop cooking. Otherwise keep cooking until it reduces and becomes thick. This will concentrate the flavor.6. Serve with white or brown rice. If doing low carb, skip the rice and add cheese or other toppings.Serving Size: Makes 10-12 3/4 cup servingsNumber of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GILLOOWL.
