Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add a few popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with a lid. Wait for the test kernels to pop.
Once the test kernels pop, add the rest of the popcorn kernels to the pot in an even layer. Cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly ajar to let steam escape, and shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning.
When the popping slows down to about 2 to 3 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat and transfer the popcorn to a large mixing bowl.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Stir the chipotle chili powder, ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, and salt into the melted butter until well combined.
Drizzle the flavored butter mixture over the popcorn, tossing gently to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Chipotle Ranch Popcorn!
