Heat a large soup pot over medium high heat with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add diced onions, celery, carrots, peppers, and garlic and sauté for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender, and onions are translucent.
Add ground pork, ground beef, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper. Break up the meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until meat is nicely browned.
Pour in the diced tomatoes, broth, and add the bay leaf, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. For a thicker chili start with 2 cups of broth instead of 3.
