    Listen to Behad. He knows what he is talking about.


    There are many types of chili. Some that have beans, and some that don't

    Real Texas chili doesn't have beans.

    I guess my parents lied to me and I wasn't really born in Texas. :eek:

    Chili must have beans because beans are the goodness. Voted beans!

    I love 3 way chili. JCI has a version of it called Texas chili pasta.

    Spaghetti noodles
    Chili
    Cheese

    You're thinking of what they call Chilli in Cinci. I'm guessing you probably put cinnamon in it and also serve it on sphaghetti. While Buckeyes call that chilli I would call it spicy sphaghetti sauce.

    There's nothing spicy about their chili. It's bland as hell and 100% pure crap.

    You got THAT right. Put the beans in, but don't call it chili.

    Couldn't agree more. If someone wants beans in their chili, I've no objection to fixin' a pot so they can add them, or rice, when it comes to that, but cooking chili with beans is, well... it's not Texan!! :eek:

    As an aside, those Cajuns tend to be superb cooks (my brother-in-law is one, and he's an amazing cook), with gumbo being their equivalent to our chili (bear with me!). I ask you, has anyone ever seen a self-respecting resident of Louisiana make a big pot of gumbo with the rice in it?? I rest my case. :p

    I agree with texxx. Skyline is an affront to humanity. Buckeyes eat their chili with beef, peppers, and beans in it, but Cincinnati folk eat chilipowder and water on spaghetti and they have the nerve to call it chili.

    you make chili in one pot and beans in the other. You do not cross the beams.
