I read that on one of their signs...that's hard to believe, that it's better than Wendy's. I will have to investigate tomorrow.

Some people would take their $1 cup of chili over your $6 cup of chili anywhere else, I know I would. Chili is chili for christ's sake, why can't a burger joint have chili? Chili is one of those rare foods that have tastes all over the spectrum, just depends on who's fixing it. Chili is always made right, because there's no wrong way to make it.

You sure you want to go that far? ;)
Oh hell yes :D. It's just my humble opinion that chili is one of the great foods that one person can make it completely different from another, with completely different ingredients, and it still be considered chili. You can't knock one chili because it's served at a place that might be considered lower on the food chain.

You're aware that the meat in that chili mostly consists of unused hamburgers that they didn't use the day before, right?

Chili rocks. So many different ways to make it. So few ways to screw it up. You can make it spicy, you can make it mild. You can make so thick that you can eat it with a fork or you can make it more soupy. It's good made fresh, but even better after it sits in the fridge overnight and you have it the next day.

You can make a giant batch, save some for the next few days work, and freeze the rest for later one.

And it's easy to make! Just start dumping stuff into a crock pot and let it cook for 6 hours.

:D

I saw this thead yesterday, so today I tried the BK chilli. It seems that the tomato sauce in it is ketchup. It isn't horrible, but Wendy's is by far better.

I give it a 4/10

Wendy's will get a 6/10.

So now we know where the hamburger patties go when they're timed out on the steam table.

Hmmm... I had no idea Wendys gave you hot sauce upon request. I will have to have a comparison soon, and post the results here.

BK "chilli" -- Awesome.

I somehow doubt that.

As far as it having surpassed Wendy's, well, that's not exactly high praise.

So there!
