PRESSURE COOKER CLASSIC BEEF CHILI

Chili in the electric pressure cooker is super fast and extremely convenient. This version is on the gently spiced side, so if you're looking for more heat, feel free to increase the chili powder or add a big pinch of cayenne - or throw a couple of extra jalapeños into the pot. Keep in mind that the leaner the beef, the less flavorful the chili. Eighty percent is a good bet here. You can also substitute ground pork or dark meat turkey. Leftover chili freezes like a dream.

This is an easy and time saving recipe. If you don't have a pressure cooker, this adapts well to the stove top or the crock pot. I have let this simmer all day in a crock pot and the results are great. Make this as mild or spicy to suit your own tastes. My house? Spice rules!
