Chili

[Snipe]

Good day guys...I got up this morning to a cool 50 degrees and sunshine. I said to my self it would be a good day for a slow simmered pot of chili.

So I was curious... How many of you like Beans in your chili ?? ...I prefer mine with out beans ..Ever since I was a young boy you were told Texas chili is the best and you don't put beans in chili...

So I thought I would put up a poll and see what you guys perfer... http://www.realtree.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif http://www.realtree.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I've never really had chili without beans so I would stick with using em. A friend of mine puts slices of green olives in his chili. First time I saw it I didn't think it would taste good but I was wrong,,, it gave it a nice kick.

Beans, with Chili, always.

[chigger1]

without beans definately

[Chrud]

Makes no difference to me.

But NEVER noodles. If there are noodles, it's not chilli, it's a casarole. http://www.realtree.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I like beans AND chili at the same time, but not cooked together.

[Snipe]

Im with you on that Tx... But it sure looks like beans in the chili is more common than I thought...It mut be a Texas way of cooking...

[hutchies]

No beans in mine thanks.

No way I want beans in my chili. I won't touch chili that contains beans.

[christsavedme]

I love beans....just not in my chili......not even one little one. Just leave em out of mine....did I mention I don't like beans in my chili! LOL

[Smitteken]

Beans bean the magical fruit the more you eat the more you toot... the more you toot the better you feel... so lift your leg and let it squeal.

[Mathews XT Man]

If ya aint got beans you dont have chili!!...LOL My wife's chili is the best!

[buckee]

I like putting a small can of red beans and a large can of regular brown beans with maple syrup in mine :D (along with a whole lot of other good stuff.):p

Good topic, by the way :D

[wtnhunt]

Chili to me is not chili without beans.

[puffball]

[LifeNRA]

Same here! But I do prefer them without beans when you add a nice bunch of cheddar cheese into it, some hot peppers, then use it as a dip with some nacho's or somekind of corn chips!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!:p

[Bachflock]

The only chili I know is made with beans. I know there is beanless chili out there but honestly I've never had it. :confused:

[stevebeilgard]

beans for sure.

[bobw]

big whole red kidney beans love them..

[lil hunter]

I hate beans in chili. Unfortunately, everyone else in my family likes them. I usually end up with a peanut butter and jelly on chili night around here.lol. Definetly no beans for me though. I do like noodles in it, but that doesn't seem too common around here.

[mike]

:cool:chili ain't chili without beans. it would be chunky tomato soup with burger in it right? LOL and you have to be able to eat it with a fork! the thicker the better

[RangerClay]

I put red kidney, navy, and pinto beans in my chili:p:p

[Tominator]

With.:cool:

[okiedog]

Wow, talk about bringing back an old post:eek:

But since its up,,,,,, Beans in the chili:D

[HarvDog]

Beans here...I use light kidney, dark kidney, and chili beans in mine.

[duckriverdave]

Light red kidney beans. No pintos in my chili but plenty of ground venison.

drd

[Jodyslilbro]

Beans with chili? Oh yeah

[Bachflock]

I, too, have never had chili without beans. However, I'd be more than happy to give it a try.

I think its more of a Texas thing...At the Chili Cook-Offs here in Texas you will be DQ'd if you have any fillers in your chili..

[mjbmxz]

If it looks good I'll eat it :D.
