RE: Sandblaster
Here again we have a situation that says that one's preference for beans(or anything else chewy or chunky) in one's chili is directly related to which side of the Mason-Dixon line you are standing on.
Most Texans do not consider "chili" anything but meat and sauce.
I have lived here for 20 years and feel that I can speak for the entire state when I say that. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I have been at several chili cook-offs and even judged one and we were told that there was to be only "meat and sauce"
One judge told me "People who put beans in their chili, don't know beans about chili"
Having typed that, I was raised back near DC and still like from time to time Kidney Beans in my chili and a friend from Vermont makes a chili with whole stew tomatos and I think chunks of bell peppers in what I call "chili-soup" Rotell makes a can of "Chili-Fixins" that will make a good ole pot of chili "Come around" like pappy used to say.
I think just as important to what is in the chili is what is under your chili.
I have some large companies that I do an anual chili lunch for around Christmas each year and I have had request for onions, Frito's,cornbread , tortillas, and shredded cheese to accompany the chili.

Re: RE: Pop or soda?
Thank you for that memory Sully. I Knew I could count on you to bring back my childhood. lol Punk, again I'm a noreaster. BEANS please? I'd eat it either way and love mushrooms too, just for the record. I have had chili with pasta in it, cheese, bread under it and any number of things. Good stuff!

as far as I know growing up. . . no just getting older (I'm never growing up), I always knew Chilli with spaghetti as "Cincinatti Chilli". . . Just one of the things I learned from my Grandpappy (Who likes to be called Mike, he gets mad if you call him grandpa, grand-dad, grand father, or any other form of the name) Were weird here in Ohio! That's the way I like it. My wifes from Texas, the only time I found a girl who LOVES Jeeps as much as I do. NOT saying that girls don't like Jeeps, just that they're getting harder to find. . . on or off the trails!

RE: Re: RE: Beans or no beans in Chilli?
Never heard of mushrooms, that could be good... I love beans in the chili, but I don't care for ground beef :shock:
Leftover pot-roast, or stew beef in a pinch is what goes in my chili, along with an obscene amount of tomatoes, green peppers, onions, dark kidney beans, light kidney beans, navy beans, garbanzo beans, and any other chili-worthy beans that I might have lying around the house... There's a couple other things that I cannot remember right now. It's a simple red chili, but it's really very tasty... Using the whole beef, especially if you can get your hands on a leftover pot-roast yeilds a chili that is very flavourful, and the beef is very tender... You can modify the texture by how long you let it cook down; it you keep it on a low simmer all day, the beef shreds itself and is everywhere, less time=larger chunks of it... Either way, I like my chili... I like making it too, when I do make chili, it's no less than a batch of 5 gallons net chili.

Another example of why not to drink and drive.
Chili without beans ? I have never even heard of that. Around here it is noodles or no noodles.
