  • Add the stewed tomatoes, brown sugar, and garlic to the Instant Pot, and stir well. 
  • Add the large can of tomato juice, and stir all ingredients together to blend well. 
  • Sprinkle a little more garlic salt on the chili, stir, place the lid on the Instant Pot, and turn it until it beeps and locks.
  • Set the pressure valve to 'Sealing', press the 'Manual' button, and set the time to 20 minutes. 
  • When the Instant Pot beeps and goes to off, watch the time, and after 13 minutes, release the pressure; with a potholder, carefully turn the pressure valve to 'VENTING'. 
  • Make sure all the pressure has been released. 
  • Check the float valve to make sure it's all the way down. 
  • Remove the lid from the Instant Pot, and stir the chili. It will have thickened a little during cooking.  
  • Serve immediately. Enjoy!
