Ha. Honestly I do that when it’s just me. Mask the awful flavor with a ton of crackers.

This summer on a trip we stopped for gas in Chugwater, WY. They bragged their chili as the best so my friend bought me an envelope as I liked my chili. Oh my goodness, it was delicious!!! Plus, it came together in minutes!!

Anyone tried this?

It’s chili beans (beans in a chili sauce) which is fine.

But it is not beans in the chili (not fine).

And yes, the “T” is for Texas.

My chili is basically cleaning out the refrigerator and pantry of items close to their expiration dates, which should be like fingernails grating on a chalkboard to you people. The last batch used three MRE’s, much celery/carrots/onions, one can of black beans, freezer burned chuck steak, two cans regular and one hot Nalley’s chili, and seasonings.

That is probably the reason I end up eating most of it myself.

Makes sense. Color can be more appetizing.

But most people here in the southwest stick with the pinto beans.

Go to Terlingua, enter it in the competition, The Big CASI Cook Off, and see what they think. You’ll find out if it’s any good.

years ago I considered writing an MRE cookbook, but any swinging dick knows how to make them taste better, and there are many books on the subject.

#1 fire makes it better...

I don’t remember where but I saw one recipe that called for grinding up tostitos or the like to use as thickener in chili. I am not sure if that would be a good sub for Masa and I’ve not tried either. I like to use cocoa powder.
