Why is it called Chipotle (Blue) Chili?

Excellent Chili, we really loved the flavor of this. I must ask though, what size is a "small" can of the chipotle chili's? We halved the recipe (it really makes a lot even then) and this was "nuclear" spicy. I think I like spicy foods and this was too much for me. The cans I found were 7 ounces. I heard you can tone them down a little by stripping out the seeds before putting them in. We ended up trying to cut the spice by adding 1/2 can of tomato sauce and the juice of another lime. We also added 2 cans of black beans to the halved recipe. I am going to strain off a little of the liquid and put this in a tortilla with rice for a super yummy and spicy burrito for lunch tomorrow! Great Recipe!

Ask your butcher for tri-tip beef when you make this. It's VERY lean and flavorful.

Sounds incendiary and just the way I love it. Thanks Cat, you are a dear. Can't wait to give this a whirl.

Im not sure if this is a mistake or joke. i think they meant 6 teaspoons black pepper. and it tomatoes and beans. i made it twice once original recipe: way too overpowering with black pepper and too meaty. second time: used 3 tblspoons black pepper, tomatoes, and kidney beans. oh and some coffee grinds and it was spectacular so be careful with this one.
