Pre-game BBQ Poll: Chili - Beans or No Beans
 

I love Texas Chili with meat only. That is the only true Chili, if you ask me. If it's got beans, it ain't Chili.


Hence, the pre-game BBQ Poll: If Chili has beans, is it really Chili?

Throw some red onions, green peppers, maybe some hot links or sausage into the all meat chili... FUCIN A man.

Beans are good. Authenticity be damned, if it makes the food taste better.

The season of lost hope. Chiefs '14

**** beans!

California Sucks for BBQ, but in Sacramento, we have this place called JR's Texas BBQ.

The BEST Texas Chili west of the Rockies, and I've got 2 huge takeout cartons that I am just about to dive into.

Chili with out beans???

Google Ads and keywords crack me up. The ad on this page is for Hormel chili.

**** Texas.



No bean chili pffft

You talking breadless sloppy joe here?

Hell to the yes!

Real Texas Chili is bean-less. If it has beans, it is chili con carne, NOT Chili. I was a bit disappointed to find that both KC barbecue and memphis barbecue featured chili with beans. I guess Texas is the only place that features all-meat Chili, the way God intended it.

I wonder which has tore up more asses - Texas chili or Texas wooden spoons?

Sloppy Joe is ground beef. Yes, a lot of Texas chili feature chili grind. But the JR's Texas Chili I'm eating right now is made from big chunks of smoke brisket. Furthest thing from a sloppy joe you are gonna get. This is a smoked brisket stew and it is heaven on wheels.

AND NO BEANS!
