If your meat needs to be cooked, then heat the olive oil in a large soup pot and add the ground beef, turkey, or pork. (If using ground beef, you don't need to use the olive oil, as the beef has enough fat on its own).
-
Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper and saute with the meat. (If using pre-cooked meat, just saute the onion, garlic and bell pepper by themselves in the olive oil).
-
Add salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, brown sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, tomatoes, beans, and beef broth. Add all the sauce from the can of chipoltle chilis.
-
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally until thickened. (About 30-40 minutes). Add more water if desired.
-
Stir in 3 Tbsp. red wine vinegar. Taste the chili and add more vinegar if desired.
-
Serve with chopped green onions, shredded cheese, and sour cream if desired.
