Place oil in a stockpot, heated to medium. Add the garlic and ½ the onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add the bison and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned. Add the equivalent of 3 tomatoes, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon pepper, the chili powder, cayenne, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder and brown sugar. Stir to combine and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the chicken stock and let simmer until the liquid is mostly gone and the chili is thickening.
