I'm a tiny bit ashamed to be making non-traditional Texas chili.

[Paladin3]

I'm using half ground beef and half ground pork sausage. Diced a bell pepper in with the onion. Had to stop myself from adding diced celery and some sweet corn. Adding a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to help the tomatoes along. Even adding three kinds of beans soon.

My cowboy card is about to be pulled. If any of you Texas chili traditionalists want to spit in disgust, spit north.

 

[QueBert]

sounds like you're making Goulash to me.

 

[Gigantopithecus]

I don't give a shit what you call it, that sounds delicious.

 

[waggy]

beans? wtf eww thats not chili.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

Chili is extremely regional. You're just defining your own region. Somewhar over yonder.

 

[PottedMeat]

At least you're not putting it on spaghetti like those midwest freaks.

 

[QueBert]

beans? wtf eww thats not chili.

Neither are Onions or Bell Peppers, what OP's making is obviously something he likes. But it's a shame what can be considered Chili now-a-days.

Texans don't know how to make Chili. Everyone knows this. Welcome to real Chili

I've seen a lot of different Chili recipes, but never one without onions.

Omit the beans, the celery and replace the bell pepper with Jalapeños and you will have achieved perfection.

Serve over fries, cooked hard, add sour cream and shredded, crisp bacon. Use Ranch Dressing to dip it in.

You will then have the perfect meal.

this. sounds yum to me. chili is a form of stew. There really are no rules.

 

[GuitarDaddy]

This thread makes me sad

OP has disgraced the name of chili, and you heathens are egging him on

There are rules if you call it Texas chili; rule #1 is no beans.
For generic chili, his recipe's not bad. It could use some coffee, though.

[slap] Single shot pistols at twenty paces, thats the only way to resolve this

Coffee? WTF? Once I'm done with GuitarDaddy, I'll Reload and deal with you!!

Texas fucks up everything that they adopt. No reason to look towards them as the arbiters of regional food-preparation methods.

Chili with beans is perfectly fine.

ohh that sounds good. not healthy at all..but really damn good.

 

[Raduque]

Corn? Beans? Bell peppers? Fuck yo chili!

Edit: Celery!?!

The 8th Circle of Hell is reserved for people just like you, OP.

I make Chili as it was originally invented to be made. Meat + Chili Peppers and nothing else. Chili Con Carne is the only thing that legally should be able to be called Chili. I understand people like putting shit like beans, onions & Bell Peppers. But with those added it really needs a different name. Calling it Chili with beans works for me, the problem is 50% of places I go out that have "chili" on the menu put beans in it and don't say so on the menu.

Even Lyndon Johnson put onions and tomatoes in his chili.
Do you also object to garlic and cumin?

 

[Chaotic42]

Meh, whatever makes you happy OP. Anyone dissing your chili is just jealous because they likely have no chili of their own.

That sounds horrible, you need to level up. Meat + chili pepers, so how is this soupy or liquid at all?

We had some 2 Alarm Chili today.

Easy and tasty...
