Storage: Chili should be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for 3-4 days.Instant pot instructions: Follow all the instructions for cooking the chili using the stove top method except the ground beef (or turkey) can be sauteed in the Instant Pot if you would like. Once all the ingredients are added to the Instant Pot, lock the lid and select the "chili" setting (manual setting can be used too) and cook on high for 18-20 minutes. Allow pressure to release for 10-15 minutes or quick release with the vent. Serve with your favorite toppings!Slow Cooker instructions: Again, follow all the same instructions as the stove top method. Brown the meat on the stove top, add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, and cook on low for 4-6 hours.
