Quote HistoryQuoted:  Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Correct, chili over rice, not rice in chili. And for the record, my Connecticut chili is seared beef and a mixture of dried peppers reconstituted, blended and strained into a slurry, some garlic and some onion. Wait, you guys don’t blend your Chili? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Brother, I'm not adding chili to rice. That would be the same as adding beans or pasta. Rather, chili is being served on top of rice. Chili is consumed as the pure, unadulterated ecstasy that it is on its own. Its wholesome goodness drips down upon the rice and extends its enjoyment, co-mingled with a lesser but nearly equally important staple. You know, I was about to post earlier that it's ludicrous to douse bland rice with a spicy stew, but then I remembered my fondness for Thai curry.

Quote HistoryQuoted: If you are still requiring enjoyment after your first bowl of chili, grab a second. There are many enjoyments in this world. I intend to experience several. Rice detracts from few, including chili. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: If people want beans in their chilli that's fine with me. I'm a live and let live kind of guy and won't criticize them for their lifestyle choices. But what they are having is "Chilli and Beans" not "Chilli." And I don't care if chilli and beans identifies as chilli or not, I'm not going to call it something that it isn't. So This! You can certainly mix the two to eat chili with beans but REAL chili does not have ?? Beans. Bigger_Hammer

Quote HistoryQuoted: Another argument in favor of Texas: The powdered spice most people call chili is primarily made from peppers in Texas. They certainly weren't grown in Pennsylvania, Illinois, or some of the other states that blanch at the idea of spice. Ergo: Chili is a Texas dish. Q.E.D. No real chili is made from powder, use |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Chili has beans. This reminds me of the morons who get mad when someone refers to people from the United States as "americans". "Buh wuh wuh about South and Central Americans! Could be them, so it doesn't mean people from the US!! Durrr!". Which is dumb and bullshit. Ask everyone in the world to point to an American and 9/10 will point to the guy holding the US flag. Words mean things, and if you did a poll most people by far would say chili has fucking beans. Chili does not have beans. Chili and bean soup is still good, but it's not chili. Steaks cooked more than medium (I'm stretching it here) are a crime. Ribs that fall off the bone are overcooked. Cornbread is not sweet. Plain cheese pizza is for retards and children. |

Quoted: Ladies and gentlemen, gather round as I unveil the unspeakable travesty that has befallen our beloved culinary world: beans in chili. Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Beans? In chili? How bad could it possibly be?” Brace yourselves. First and foremost, let’s consult the annals of chili history. Chili con carne, a dish with roots deep in the heartland of Texas, was birthed in a world where the simple marriage of meat and spices was more than sufficient. It was a symphony of flavors, an ode to the prowess of the cowboy, and an anthem to the heat of the desert. But somewhere along the line, someone thought, "You know what this perfect dish needs? Beans." That's like saying the Mona Lisa needs a nose ring or Beethoven's 9th Symphony needs a rap solo. It's an affront to tradition and an absolute culinary catastrophe. Beans are traitorous little nuggets of deceit. They masquerade as meaty morsels but are nothing more than filler, distracting from the rich tapestry of flavors that chili inherently provides. They're like that one person who insists on singing along at a concert even though they're tone-deaf; they just don’t belong. And from a texture perspective? Oh, don’t even get me started. A good chili should have a harmonious consistency, with the meat being the star. Introducing beans into the mix is like inviting a marching band to a ballet performance. Suddenly, there's chaos, discord, and a lot of people questioning their life choices. Not to mention the gastrointestinal repercussions. Beans are notorious for their, ahem, musical side effects. Is that what we want for our chili eaters? A symphony of flatulence? I think not! Lastly, think of the children. Do we want to raise a generation that believes beans belong in chili? What other culinary monstrosities will they come to accept? Pineapple on pizza? Milk before cereal? The horror! So, next time someone suggests adding beans to chili, remember this impassioned plea. For the love of all things sacred in the culinary world, JUST SAY NO. Let us preserve the sanctity of chili, untainted and bean-free, for generations to come. Holy shit. This is like the Shakespeare of wrongness |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I believe OPs origin story to be correct. However he is leaving out a critical component. Food was scarce on the range. If Cookie had to stretch the rations, your chilli was getting beans and you'll be greatful for it. He leaves out your supposed "critical component" because chili con carne wasn't range food. Beans were. Chili con carne was popularized by the Chili Queens of San Antonio. It did not contain beans. That is the original and traditional chili con carne or "Chili". |

No. Call it something else as in "Cincinnati Style Chili" or "Pennsylvania Style Bean, Corn and Mushroom Chili"......but not "Chili". If someone says they made a Philly cheesesteak sandwich and they hand me chopped hotdogs on a Kings Hawaiian roll.......it aint a Philly cheesesteak. No matter what your DEI office says, just because you think its a Philly, doesn't make it a Philly. Tacos aren't made with Wonder bread and ketchup. Barbecue doesn't come in a can. For fucks sake be a man and understand that Asian Inspired Beyond Meat Tofurkey Fusion with Beans is not Chili. Chili is a simple meat dish. It's chile peppers, seasonings and BEEF. Not deer, we call that "venison chili", not bear, that's "bear chili". And for heavens sake no bell peppers.....that's the sign of a pussy who don't know better. If there is green in your Bowl of Red, son, you fucked up. Habaneros, Ghost peppers, Carolina Reapers.......add nothing but heat and are the sign of a cook trying to hide his flavorless chili with heat. There ARE traditional chile peppers and they are perfect. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Chili doesn't have tomatoes or any tomato products either. Myth. THE book on authentic Texas chili is "A Bowl of Red" by Francis X. Tolbert. He says there were recipes in South Texas that included tomatoes. None with tomato sauce or tomato paste. It is known as the "Pedernales River recipe" which was served on the LBJ Ranch. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Beans are a low cost protein multiplier, and they belong in chili. 100% Dear bean advocate, while I acknowledge your argument about beans as a "low-cost protein multiplier," let us not forget the esteemed realm of chili purists. Chili is the food of gods, transcending mere mortal concoctions. Beans, however, have long been the fare of the poors. Adding beans to chili is akin to wearing socks with sandals at a fashion show or serving boxed wine at a wine tasting. They might fill the pot and the belly, but they reduce the dish's noble essence. So, before championing beans in chili, recall: just as a racehorse isn't meant for farm labor, chili isn’t meant for beans. Keep beans in their simple stews, and chili in its regal splendor. |

No, beans have always, and will always, be a part of proper chili. Scotchy hath spoken. (And as an aside, the very best chili I have ever tasted, [and I say this in complete seriousness as a man who has lived in New Orleans for a quarter of a century, and who has tasted MANY a great chili, with and without beans, from New Orleanians and native Texans alike,] was made by my vegetarian father with textured vegetable protein......and beans.) |
