Directions

1. Step1
   In a large pot, cook bacon over medium heat for 5 minutes or until crispy, stirring occasionally. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper-towel lined plate. Do not drain grease from pot.
2. Step2
   In the same pot, cook onion and bell pepper for 1 minute. Add pork loin and cook 1 minute. Stir in half-and-half, broth, chili powder, and reserved bacon pieces and bring to a boil. Stir in cheese until completely melted; reduce heat to maintain a simmer.
3. Step3
   In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water until smooth; whisk into chili to thicken. Increase heat to high, and boil for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat. Carefully stir in northern beans and chili beans to avoid breaking or mashing the beans.
4. Step4
   To serve, spoon chili over white rice.
