Use Sauteฬ function on the Instant Pot to heat olive oil; brown/crumble beef. While meat is cooking, use a mixing bowl to whisk together broth, fish sauce, soy, Worcestershire, t. paste, cocoa.
Remove beef in a new bowl, reserving liquid.
In IP: Add oil, onion, g. pepper; cook 2-3 mins. Add garlic for 1 min. Add chili, cumin, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, brown sugar; cook 1 min, until fragrant. Careful: It can burn quickly. Once caramelized, deglaze the bottom of the pot with vinegar. Scrape bottom very well (or else chili will burn later). Add the broth mixture; stir.
