Chili Beans
This recipe for chili beans uses small red beans and black beans, or black turtle beans. You can of course use pinto beans, kidney beans, white beans, or your favorite bean.
I prefer the red and black beans for chili because of their flavor and texture. If you like a more textured bean, use kidney beans in your chili.

Instructions
Instructions
- I use a Ninja Foodi to pressure cook my beans, but you can use whatever pressure cooker you have. Sautee the mirepoix on the sautee setting on high in the beef fat until translucent. Add the rest of the ingredients to the pressure cooker and cook under HI pressure for 75 minutes once the pop-up indicator is up. Let slow release for 15 minutes, then quick release until the pressure is gone. Serve or store.
