Do beans belong in chili? Every time I have the perfect chili flavor (ground beef, stewed tomatoes, bell peppers, chili powder, onion powder, etc) and add beans, they seem to sap all the flavor and frick it all up. So what do you guys think?
Do beans belong in chili?
You probably just need to add more salt and that should solve your problem. Just whatever you do DO NOT make chili without some type of beans or else the israelite government CIA will break into your house and rape you
Might skip the beans this round I get pissed when they frick my flavor up

It's not chili without beans.
>b...but-
Nope. It needs beans.
It actually isn't chili with beans. Sorry kid.
have you tried adding sea bass?
You might as well ask whether spaghetti bolognese really needs pasta
You are all fricking moronic. Chili DOES NOT have beans. I'm not sure what chili+beans is called, but it literally isn't called chili.
Chili can mean with meat only or with meat and beans. Chili con carne means chili with meat, no beans. Chili con carne y frijoles is chili with meat and beans.
Chili is short for "chili con carne."
"Chili con frijoles" is technically a Spanish phrase you can string together but it's not an actual dish beyond people in recent history maybe deciding to larp it as one.
Hamburger is short for "Hamburger with cheese"
I just said something equally stupid as you did.
Hamburgers without cheese are an actual
meal that's existed for a very long time, hence why we have both words hamburger and cheeseburger.
Chili con frijoles is a Spanish phrase you can string together but not a real historical dish like chili con carne is.
Chili has never been short for chili con frijoles.
Hope that helps.
Cope. People have been adding beans to chili for over 100 years. The dish isn't that old anyway, it's post-columbian.
It's almost like the rule about not ruining chili con carne with beans actually has reasons behind it.
The entire point of chili is to make a very loud and in your face flavor, and if anyone can taste weak bean flavor in chili it means the chili itself was entirely too weak. Which further means adding beans either means the person doing it made weak chili or else they made good chili and then added beans you can't taste that aren't helping the dish at all.
At best beans are a disappointing filler for when you're rationing meat because it's WWII or whatever.
>mmmmmm I can't wait to eat an entire bowl of mince meat
It's OK if you don't like chili, anon. Plenty of meat and bean food you can get from Taco Bell that might be more your speed.
T*xas was a mistake
It's funny because I was just talking to a bunch of Mexicans last week and they were telling me that the principle difference between Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine is that the Texans add fricktons of beans to dishes that Mexicans don't. Except chili apparently, then they autistically screech like Italians if you put beans in chili.
Beans are the basis of chili. Meat comes as an afterthought. Thats why its called chili con carne. The chili is the vegan vegetable mixture, and you can have it 'with meat' as an option. Also 1/3 spicy sausage, 1/3 sweet sausage, 1/3 beef is best meat ratio. Just having ground beef is awful
Planning on making Chilli this weekend in a slow cooker
Ground beef
Can of tomatoes
Habanero peppers
Jalapeño
Pablano
Garlic
Yellow onion
Little bit it Chilli powder. I find it over saturates the dish if you use too much.
Any other recs? No beans.
I recommend beans.
What the actual frick. Last night I had a dream I was driving while eating Wendys chili with nachos
