I like the beans in chili. Texans do, too. I don’t know who started the image that Texans don’t like beans but I suspect it was a yankee.

“I like the beans in chili. Texans do, too.”

It’s no longer chili, it’s a stew.

One thing I started doing recently is pouring the juice from one can of back beans into the mix.

Traditional Chili had no beans or Tomatoes.

Exactly the way I like making it.

My chili’s about 4 parts meat to 1 part bean, perhaps the reverse of what you’d find in the typical canned version.

[TLI]

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.

When I make chili, about 4 gallons at a time, I add 2 big cans of chili hot beans. But, I take one can and grind it into a paste before adding. All the bean flavor, and it really thickens the chili (I add the ground beans when it’s almost done)
