Let simmer for 15-30 minutes or until you get hungry and can't stand the smell any longer. 7. Serve with fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, some cheese and crushed tortilla strips. A beer, glass of milk or glass of water will be required to finish this meal. Note: You can adjust all spices and herbs to suit your tastes, and swap out bison for beef if you can't get bison. My numbers above are estimations of what we added. If you don't want this to be quite so spicy, swap the Poblano for a regular green pepper and use half or none of the chipotles in adobo.
