Chili : with crackers or without?

I'll crunch ups some crackers in the bottom of the bowl if the chili is kind of thin.  I also like some shredded cheese, either sharp cheddar or peeper jack on top.

I like to smash up a lot of saltines and stir them in, I also like to have cold cottage cheese with but not in my chili.  The cold cottage cheese and hot chili is a really nice contrast, it's kind of like the flavor you get with sour cream but better IMO.

A chili thread!   :panic:

This was recently mine, bitchslap at will.

Pound + a bit more ground beef
1 sirloin steak, cubed
One can pinto beans  :panic:
2 cans diced tomatoes, w/chiles
1 onion
tsp minced garlic
1 and a half envelopes McCormick chili seasoning

Brown the beef separately, including the onion and garlic in the browning.  Add everything to the crockpot, rinse out the cans with water (1/2 can).  Cook on low for 6 hours.

If it doesn't have tomatoes, then what do you have?  Hot water with beef swimming around in it?  How do you get it thick otherwise?   Bitchslap all you want, my husband loved it.  Beans are good for you, too, so there.  :tongue:

Well, if you want a gravy surrounding your beef, that ain't chili. That's basically braised beef.

When I make chili, I cook it low and slow till the "juice" is mostly reduced. Between the chilis (yeah, you gotta have some of those in your chili, usually roasted on a fire, peeled, rough-chopped, and tossed in with the beef before the major cooking process), onions, and garlic, and the fact that most of your liquid has been reduced, you wind up with mostly.....


.....drum roll......


Chili!

(That's a euphemism for beef and stuff that makes it taste good, which doesn't include a lot of liquid.)

Good stuff.    :cheersmate:

So what is real honest  to heavens real Chili ?? How the heck far back in time are you guys going??

Lets see, 100 years ago Chili was made with just beef or any kind of meat from Lizard to dog,  water  hot peppers and some kind of corn meal.

After WW1 the Gringos on the border added tomatoes and beans.  Spices as to garlic and what not.  The original Chili had changed and continued to change as time went on.

The Veterans that returned north of the border from the war all had their own ideas about Chili.   What started out as meat, water, hot peppers  and corn meal, was now to go through the Nation in all different forms.

Chili in the north was different from chili in the west or south, 100 years in the making and now the food is regional, to bean or not to bean,   What ever all tastes good, the original Chili of meat water hot peppers and corn meal is fortunately not an option for us today.

Yankees want beans, Texans hate beans,  rest of the Nation are to bean or not to bean.  That is the question.

I just found this at the DUmp:

The “official” first family recipe features ground turkey or beef, ground turmeric among the spices, and a healthy dose of red wine vinegar.

read: http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/03/obama-family-chili-recipe-on-new-pinterest-page/



YUCK  Ground turmeric?  Tastes like aluminum.  What's with the vinegar?
