Texas chili is the best chili on the planet. Everybody else puts beans in their chili. Texas BBQ chili is 100% meat, probably brisket. And it is easily the finest chili on the planet.
Too funny. Everybody likes what they like. I like Texas chili, have even made it a few times myself here in the ex-burbs of Baltimore.
But I don’t turn my nose up at chili with beans in it either.
My late Houston uncle made his with finely diced chuck roast.
