If a "chili" has beans, it is not chili. It is bean and meat casserole or something.

What do you eat with your chili?
Cornbread
Saltines
Fritos
Rice

Chik-fil-a is a chicken restaurant that gives out real honey in little packets. Popeyes went cheap and has "honey blend". Corn syrup + a drop of honey. Tastes different on their hot buttered biscuits. I was using Popeyes' honey until they went cheap on me. Put the packets in a ziplock in a separate compartment.

Don't carry a honey bottle. It will eventually leak. The backpack is washable. The computer, not so much. Books - don't get me started on honey covered books.

True! Lol although I think my dad used to make it with beans haha

I’m glad if it doesn’t though cause I can’t really eat beans anymore lol

I was about to say I’ve never eaten chili with saltines but then I realized I do crumble them and sprinkle them on the bowl/on top of the chili lol

Never had it with rice or Fritos though.

Also you forgot nachos/tortilla chips LOL

And oh yeah I know what Chik Fil A and Popeyes are LOL awe actually just had a chik fil a open here a few months ago! I used to loveeeee it but have never eaten at the new one. Got some sandwiches at a festival once lol they were so good. But I can’t eat fast food or fried food anymore haha

But I just didn’t think it’d be real honey lol

That’s good it is though! Figured it’d be like Popeyes haha I’d bring my own honey in at that rate lol

And oh boy! You sound very experienced in this have you had leaking honey bottles and honey covered books and computers before!?

Cornbread or tortilla chips. Fritos for frito pie.

Oh and beans. Lots of beans

 

[ShrekDawg]

Cornbread or rice. Also, who doesn't add beans to chili? Weirdo.

Never heard of it with rice lol

And yeah tbh I don’t even know if I’d consider it chili without beans. That’s just like.... tomato soup lol

EXACTLY!!

Except maybe the Frito pie part lol

Beans?!?

To make sure we are calling the same thing "chili", which I highly doubt, a few point for clarity.

Are we talking deer chili? Not cow and most certainly not turkey?
The canned stuff is interesting, but again, oatmeal thickened, congealed masses of meaty (or beany) seasoned stew is not included here.

If you are talking turkey and beans soup, I agree that you should add beans.

If we are talking venison chunks (ground meat need not apply), black pot cooked, genuine crushed, dried chilis, and cooked for 12 hours chili, then send me a recipe.

I’ve never heard of any of those

I’m talking get a big stainless steel pot and put on the stove (ours is gas) and add some sort of tomato stuff (I think my dad uses crushed tomatoes and possibly tomato sauce or something? All canned and lots of it lol), and ground beef, and he usually adds black beans, and I think some sauces like chili powder or whatever, usually too much for me LOL, and I think some onions, and let it cook/simmer hours or all day. That’s the only kind I know lol and I melt cheese and sprinkle some saltines on top of it. Sometimes he adds other veggies like some bell peppers or something but we’ve never added real hot peppers to my knowledge haha but he hasn’t made it in like years lol maybe sooner. Idk exactly but he usually only makes it like for the Super Bowl or something lol big football games etc. but lately we’ve been making nachos and/or buffalo chicken dip instead haha

Oh and also I just remembered I made this masterpiece a few years ago.

Spoiler: You guys will probably think this is gross

I probably put more beans than I do meat in my chili.

 

[ShrekDawg]

We probably do too

Although we do add a lot of beef and sometimes pork or chicken too haha

I definitely do! I know chili con carne is literally meat with chiles and that is the root origin of the stuff we call chili.

But, it's a category, not a recipe. Most people put tomatoes and other spices in it and a lot of us include beans. That doesn't make it "not chili" or most people at the chili cook off would be DQed.

I make multiple different kinds myself and I don't use a recipe. I'm crazy like that. And that's after being raised on chili being made with ground beef, canned beans, and a spice package (exactly the same dish every time...)
