Seared Beef Chili with Rice

Nothing drives away the chill of winter like warm bowl of smoky, spicy, beefy chili. Thanks to the Suvie Slow Cook mode you can let this chili cook all day long for the best, most tender pieces of beef. We use whole pieces of chuck beef for a Texas-style chili that’s slow cooked with smoky chipotle pepper, tomato, cumin, lots of garlic, and kidney beans. If you want to dial back the heat you can omit the chipotle pepper, but feel free to add some smoked paprika to mimic the smokiness without all of the heat. Served over a bowl of white rice and garnish with sour cream and scallions.

Wine Pairing

This rich and robust Chili should be pairing with a suitably muscular wine. Argentina Malbec is the perfect compliment to this dish. The wine works best when paired with umami rich foods and it will really bring out the smokey and earthy notes in the Chili.
