Buy pork tenderloin when it is on special at No Frills (usually cheaper than any other cut of meat)
Cook in crock pot
Cut into 2 inch lengths and the pull apart with 2 forks.
Return to crock pot and add a little water, maple syrup and course ground cayenne pepper.
Simmer for several hours on low heat.
Serve on bun.
You could call it pulled pork with an attitude!
Chilli was traditionally a meat dish served on cattle drives and did not contain beans.

If we are going down this rabbit hole , its not Mexican at all , Chili was invented by the Texas prison system as a way to make almost rotten beef palatable. Bury the bad taste in spice. And it had no beans.
Me, I like to buy ground pork, medium beef and the cheapest spicey sausage I can find, sausage gets taken out of casings and with the other meats , browned up , taken out / set aside. Brown diced onions till translucent and throw in some garlic, DO NOT burn the garlic. Meat back in pot , add two cans diced tomatoes. one can Kidney beans, one can white navy beans , maybe two cans to get bean / meat ratio looking right. then a handful of cummin, black pepper , salt and chili powder. as it sits all day , the salt will gets soaked into beans and the salty taste goes away. You can add more at finish, if its not powerful enough , throw in more chili powder.
There is no skill in making chili Holy F hot, any idiot can do that, its suppoosed to be a flavour not a pain.

One thing I didn’t like about chili is the beans…nice to see that it’s not a mandatory item!
