    chipotle savvy
    Chipotle chiles are smoked jalapeños. They add more smoke than heat, but it’s important to sauté the chiles to allow them to develop their flavor. Chipotles come canned in a sauce called adobo. You will have chiles left over. Mound individual chiles with a bit of the adobo sauce on a piece of aluminum foil on a cookie sheet. Freeze the chiles until firm, then transfer them to a zipper-top plastic bag, label, and freeze.

Super Bowl Sunday Chili
    I could probably write a book just on slow-cooker chilies, there are so many of them. This one features beef short ribs that become tender and flavorful as the chili bubbles away in the slow cooker. I’ve added pinto beans and just the right amount of cilantro at the end. The next time it’s your turn to host the Super Bowl Party, this can be your go-to dish. Make sure to have a condiment bar so your guests can load up on cheese, sour cream, onions, pickled jalapeños, and an assortment of hot sauces. Any leftover chili can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 6 weeks.
    3 tablespoons vegetable oil
    2 medium onions, finely chopped
    1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
    1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
    ½ teaspoon dried oregano
    2 pounds boneless beef short ribs or chuck, cut into ½-inch pieces
    3 cups beef broth
    One 28- to 32-ounce can crushed tomatoes, with their juice
    Two 14- to 15-ounce cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
    heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over mediumhigh heat. Add the onions, jalapeño, chile powder, and oregano and sauté until the onions become soft, about 3 minutes.
    transfer the contents of the skillet to the insert of a 5- to 7-quart slow cooker. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the same skillet over high heat.
    add the meat, a few pieces at a time, and brown on all sides. Transfer the browned meat to the slow-cooker insert. Add the broth, tomatoes, and
