steakhouse black bean chili

Updated on Jan 2, 2012

When we grill steaks, I always grab an extra inexpensive cut and grill to medium, and then freeze for later use in chili. It adds an extra zing of smoky flavor. This is my husbands favorite Cave Man chili! We like it with both steak and ground beef!
