Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the avocado oil or olive oil.
Once hot, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Push the vegetables to one side of the pot and add the ground beef and ground pork. Cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon (about 8-10 minutes). Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices and deepen the flavors.
Add the fire-roasted diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef bone broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Allow the chili to simmer uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes to thicken, if desired.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped cilantro and green onions, if using.
