HogNose Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 A debate has started in BB's chili thread about how Chili should be served. With beans or No beans. How do you like your chili? :hungry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 i'm not a big fan of the beans in chili, but it just doesn't taste the same without them in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Kaos Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I voted "with beans" more because thats how it's served at nearly everyplace around here. When I make it at home 9 times outta ten there's no beans in it, more because the rest of the family can't stand any kind of bean. So I guess the irony here, as the purist would judge, is that I (who loves chili) eat both chili and some sort of evil mixture with beans but the family has only eaten real chili.

Forehead Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 True chili, like the kind my grandfather used to make in New Mexico, contains no beans, just meat and an assload of various hot sauces. I'll eat pretty much any type of chili, but I'm a purist at heart. No beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfan44 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I voted "With beans" but I do once in a while like to eat Texas style that has no beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 12th Commandment Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 True chili, like the kind my grandfather used to make in New Mexico, contains no beans, just meat and an assload of various hot sauces. I'll eat pretty much any type of chili, but I'm a purist at heart. No beans. If it's from NM it's also spelled with an 'e' as in chile con carne. Red chile or chile colorado with pork is my favorite and it would never, ever have beans in it. They're a side dish along with rice. The stuff most of you folks are referring to is good too, I like some chili beans (mmmm with chorizo and cheese) but it's considered to be a different thing here.

JeffSchmeff Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Corn? Strange, but I might have to try that. I make a fired up chicken chili that has frozen corn kernels in it - I think 2 cups. It's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USS Redskins Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 With Beans - black and red (all that fiber is good for you!). Big chunks of meat, tons of green and red peppers, tons of onions.... some cheese, sour cream, a few blasts of Tabasco and for the topper - a big Fresh Jalapeno on top to chew on. My wife wont go near me for a day or so after that meal. mmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingGibbs Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 To me, chili isn't chili unless there are SOME beans in it. But, I do put more meat then I do beans along with more ingredients and no I'm not giving you my recipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar78 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 doesn't matter. Gotta be served with or over cornbread though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosher Ham Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 With beans for me. I will eat it either way, but I expect beans. My ex GF was shocked that I put meat in chili, she had never had that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaxBuddy21 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 w/ beans but the key ingredient is Sour Cream...! Agreed! Cannot eat chili without some sour cream. I also like to add some shredded cheese too. I have eaten chili without beans but it doesnt feel like Im eating chili. I grew up with kidney beans always in our chili. To me, its like eating cheese pizza. Technically its still pizza but to me pizza is not pizza without toppings. Otherwise it is just cheese bread with some marinara sauce.
