In a large pot, saute venison in oil until no pink remains. Add onion and garlic and sauce until onion is wilted. Add tomatoes, undrained. Add remaining spices except habanero powder.
Simmer on low for about 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
Just prior to serving, sprinkle habanero powder over chili and stir until mixed.
