Notes
- Use a lean ground beef to make this chili. If it's not lean, a lot of fat will escape and make your chili quite greasy.
- Feel free to add in other veggies like mushrooms, carrots and bell peppers.
- Rinse your beans before adding them to the Instant Pot. They can be quite salty if you don't.
- If making ahead of time, let the chili cool to room temperature before storing.
