Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes.

  • If using ground turkey, break up until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes.

  • If using Impossible burger, break up until burger reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Stem poblano pepper, seed, and cut into 1/2" dice. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork

    Place a large pot over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground pork to hot pot. Break up meat until no pink remains and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer pork to a plate. Reserve pot; no need to wipe clean.

  3. 3

    Cook the Poblanos

    Return pot used to cook pork to medium heat. Add poblanos (to taste) to hot pot. Stir occasionally until poblanos are slightly charred and starting to soften, 3-5 minutes.

    Add bacon, white portions of green onions, and half the green portions of green onions (reserve remaining for garnish) and stir occasionally until bacon crisps, 30-60 seconds.

  4. 4

    Add the Broth and Beans

    Add tomato sauce, beans and their liquid, chile and cumin rub, cooked pork, and 11/2 cups water to hot pot. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, cover and cook until poblanos are tender, 4-6 minutes.

    In a mixing bowl, combine cornstarch and 2 Tbsp. water. Stir until cornstarch is dissolved. Add cornstarch mixture to chili, stir to combine, and simmer until chili has thickened, 5-10 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish
