windcatcher 0 #52 November 18, 2005 QuoteIt's not about what you put in it as much as what you don't put in it.... CHILI DOESN"T HAVE BEANS IN IT....... ask anyone from Texas.... however... feel free to put lots of chili peppers and tequilla in it.... I thought in Texas chili doesn't have meat? I guess it's beans? That's asinine! Mother to the cutest little thing in the world... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeatherB 0 #53 November 19, 2005 Uh-oh. My chili has dark red kidney beans in it. Will I be shunned in Texas? Do I need to alter my recipe before moving there? (Seriously though...chocolate? That sounds really wierd) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen some folks here in Texas, scoop some red beans into their chili. You can take it from there. Eating a bowl of chili with home-made flour tortillas... to die for!

Shotgun 1 #55 November 19, 2005 Well I'm from Texas, and I always thought it was ok to have beans in chili... but I was just browsing through some recipes from the infamous Terlingua Chili Cookoff, and I don't see any recipes that include beans.
