Buffalo is (typically) a leaner option over beef so I was excited to try this recipe. Overall the flavor was good but not extraordinary. With two cans of beans the 2 teaspoons of chili powder is definitely lost and forgotten, and that's the only real boost to the flavoring. If you like a very mild, simply flavored chili then keep it as is and you won't be disappointed. If you'd like to bring up the flavors a bit try seasoned tomatoes, spicy tomato juice, and/or additional chili powder.
