Directions
- Preheat your grill or smoker to 375°F with your dutch oven or oven-safe pot inside. If using a Pit Boss grill, close your grill's sear plate or flame broiler plate.
- Once grill and pot are preheated, add butter and ground venison to the dutch oven and cook until browned.
- Add garlic, onion, and diced green peppers. Sauté until onions are soft and translucent.
- Add all remaining ingredients and spices into the pot and stir until incorporated. If using canned beans, ensure the beans are drained and rinsed.
- Allow the chili to cook in the smoker for 45 minutes to 1 hour until desired consistency is achieved.
- Remove the dutch oven from the grill and let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with your choice of sour cream, red onions, and cheese.
