The official chili sanctioning body in Texas is the Chili Appreciation Society International, CASI. CASI makes the rules. They award points to the best ten cookers and these points can qualify a team for the World Chili Championship held the first Saturday of November in the dusty ghost town of Terlingua. It's important to note that CASI is a not-for-profit organization and all proceeds from one of their sanctioned event go to local charities.

There is only one kind of chili recognized by CASI: Texas red. No fillers are allowed, or as the rules state: "NO FILLERS IN CHILI - Beans, macaroni, rice, hominy, or other similar ingredients are not permitted." (In Texas putting beans in chili has replaced horse thievery as the number one hanging offense.)

Yeah it has been a controversy for years, but I will never have Chili without my beans.

Here is what Wiki says:

Controversy
A popular saying among self-proclaimed chili purists[who?] is, "If you know beans about chili, you know chili ain't got no beans." The concept that beans do not belong in chili may be further credited to the fact that most official chili cookoffs do not allow beans. In many cases, a chili will be disqualified if it contains such ingredients, considered filler.[3]
Pinto beans (frijoles), a staple of Tex-Mex cooking, have long been associated with chili. The question of whether beans "belong" in chili has been a matter of contention amongst chili cooks for an equally long time. It is likely that in many poorer areas of San Antonio and other places associated with the origins of chili, beans were used rather than meat, or in addition to meat. In that regard, some chili aficionados suggest that there were probably two chili types made in the world, depending on what could be afforded and how frugal the cook was.

Never eat chili late at night...




If you're 50 years old. I eat all kinds of junk late at night and it does nothing to me.

Plenty of beans alright. What a night - and morning. The worst is over.

When it warms up in a while, time to air it out.

Ya'll ain't having Chili...you are having Frijoles con Carne

Nothing wrong with a pot of beans and meat, but for God's sake try some REAL chili once.

[IONTOP]

I can settle this:

Chili without beans = hot dog chili, it can make a meal.
Chili with beans = Standalone chili, it can be a meal...

Ok I started a Chili poll:

Proton pump inhibitors FTW!

(I used to eat dinner around 9 or 10 at night and even now at the tender age of 30, I can't even fathom doing that anymore. )

Texas is home of the pukes so that discredits anything from there.
