Get another pot about the size of your original pot. Pour the chili into the replacement pot, not disturbing the bottom layer where the burnt chili is. You will get most, if not all, the burnt flavor out.
My hubby is a chili cook off winner. He has burnt one or two test batches and he has tried to save them (for us not his entries) with a small amount of honey, tomato paste, and a liquid like beef broth or salsa or water.
Start with a tablespoon of each to see if you notice a difference. If so, you can add small amounts more until it is better. If not, sadly most of the time it is beyond repair (for him).
He read that some people use peanut butter or unsweetened dark chocolate (baking chocolate) and sugar to get rid of the smell/burned taste, but he has severe allergies to both peanut butter and chocolate, so that is not an option for him.
Post back with an update.
You could try a new container without taking in the bottom layer that is scorched .Unless you are adding more ingredients smell might go ,but may still be able to taste!
This is so hard to get rid of the order of burned beans or anything burned in your food. You can try to move the good beans to a new pot and start to add a little honey and some ketchup to the mixture to cut down on the smell.
