Instructions
- In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, sauté ground pork, sausage, onion, garlic, and salt until the meat is no longer pink. Use a wooden spoon to break up the pork and sausage as it cooks. Drain off the excess grease.
- Add the remaining ingredients. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer the chili uncovered over low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste and season with additional salt and ground black pepper, if desired.
- Ladle into individual serving bowls and garnish with optional toppings.
Notes
- Instead of a packet of chili seasoning mix, use your own spices to make your own seasoning blend. Start with 2 ½ tablespoons chili powder, 2 ½ teaspoons ground cumin, 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper. Taste the chili as it simmers and adjust the seasonings to suit your preferences.
- Substitute ground beef, ground turkey, or ground chicken for the ground pork.
- Use beef broth instead of chicken broth.
- Instead of the stewed tomatoes, use canned diced tomatoes or canned whole tomatoes (that you break up with your hands or with a wooden spoon).
- Swap out the corn and add an extra can of beans.
- Add beer: replace some of the broth with your favorite beer for a yeasty, rich flavor.
- For more veggies, add diced sweet bell pepper to the pot when you add the onion.
- Crock Pot pork chili: brown the meat, onion, and garlic as instructed in a skillet. Drain off the fat, then transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Add the remaining ingredients, cover, and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours or on HIGH for 2-3 hours.
- For a spicy pot of pork chili, add cayenne pepper, choose hot sausage, pick a spicy chili seasoning mix, or use regular or spicy Rotel (instead of mild).
