One of the things I really love about homemade chili is that you can eat it so many different ways. Add it to your hot dog for a game night, eat it on a burger for something fun and unique, or enjoy a hot bowl with all your favorite toppings. There is no wrong way to eat this chili! It’s great year-round and I think you are going to be happy with how simple it is too.

Top it with some sour cream, fresh jalapenos, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, or some tasty crackers. You are seriously going to fall in love with this Instant Pot chili!
