  1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high. Brown the ground beef, breaking it up, about 8 minutes until no pink remains, then drain excess fat.
  2. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes, then stir in garlic, chili powder, and cumin and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in tomato paste and cook 1 minute, then add diced tomatoes, beans, and beef broth.
  4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes.
  5. Season with salt to taste and simmer 5 more minutes to thicken.
  6. Cool completely before portioning into containers.
