Introduce the recipe as a collaboration with Jenn Chapin.

Explain that the recipe is for crock pot pulled pork chili and that the creator is doubling the recipe for a large family.

Chop fresh vegetables, including bell peppers and onions, noting the surprise of one onion being purple.

Decide to use both a 6-quart crock pot and a 6-quart Instant Pot due to the size of the pork roast.

Mention that the recipe calls for a half cup of hot sauce but to adjust based on personal heat preference.

Leave out cayenne pepper and crushed red pepper flakes to reduce spiciness, noting that the chili ended up quite spicy even without them.

Cook the crock pot version on high for about 10 hours, resulting in a thick consistency, while the Instant Pot version takes about an hour and a half and is more soupy.

Suggest that if the liquid is too soupy in the Instant Pot, to take the lid off and hit sauté to boil out some liquid.

Freeze the leftovers, putting some in a big Tupperware and the rest in zip lock bags.
