Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 ½ pounds lean ground sirloin

  • 1 onion, diced

  • 3 stalks celery, diced

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans chili beans, undrained

  • 1 (29 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce

  • 2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chiles, undrained

  • 2 tablespoons chili powder

  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Huy Fong Foods®), or to taste

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

  1. Turn on a multi-cooker (such as Instant Pot) and the select Saute function. Coat the bottom of the pot with oil.

  2. Cook beef until browned, about 5 minutes. Add onion, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat. Add chili beans, pinto beans, tomato sauce, green chiles, chili powder, cider vinegar, chile-garlic sauce, oregano, and cumin. Stir well.

  3. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  4. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

If using a 6-quart Instant Pot place pinto beans in last, only filling the inner pot 2/3 full. If you have an 8-quart Instant Pot, all ingredients will fit without overflowing.
