Cook and stir ground beef and pork in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard excess grease.

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 of the onion, along with green bell pepper, habanero peppers, jalapeño peppers, and garlic. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.

Stir cooked beef and pork into onion mixture along with chili beans, diced tomatoes, beer, tomato sauce, water, tomato paste, and green onion. Sprinkle with cornmeal, then season with chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.

Reheat chili over medium heat until it begins to simmer again. Top individual servings of chili with cheese and remaining onion.
