Chili is best made in the Instant pot if you ask me, that is because the pressure cooking method cooks the beans well making them super soft and delicious.
I use powdered ingredients for this recipe to speed up the process for those in a hurry to get dinner on the table.
However, you can always chop some fresh onions & garlic instead of using powder if desired.
And you can always make this on the stove-top as well or slow cooker but that will take a longer, so depending on what you have going on for the day.
The instant pot method may be more up your alley.
