Heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in a large pot on the stove (or any appliance with sear/sauté) and heat over high heat until hot. Add in the diced onions & green peppers. Sauté on high for about 3 minutes or until the onions and peppers are about 50% cooked.
1 large sweet onion, 2 green bell peppers, 1 Tablespoon olive oil
Add in the seasoning blend and the minced garlic. Stir and reduce the heat to medium or turn it off if you are braising or slow cooking the chili. Stir to combine the ingredients.
1 Tablespoon Chili powder, 2 teaspoons sweet paprika, 1 teaspoon fine grind sea salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dry ground mustard, 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
Add the cooked pork, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar and stir to combine.
1 pound leftover pulled pork, 2 Tablespoons soy sauce, 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
Add all the remaining ingredients (except cheese) and stir. Increase the heat to high and bring the contents of the pot to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low or low so that it is simmering. Cover and simmer for 1 hour. Taste for seasonings and add chipotle pepper if you want it spicier. Add salt, pepper, and any other seasonings to taste.
2 cups beef broth, 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes, 15 ounces tomato sauce, 1½ cups corn, 1 red chili pepper, ¼ teaspoon chipotle pepper, 16 ounces chili beans
Ladle into bowls and top with shredded cheese and serve with air fryer hushpuppies if desired. Enjoy!
