Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground pork over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Season the chili with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
