Texas Chili has beans?

[bbqLuv]

Easy Texas Chili Recipe (allrecipes.com) Ingredients

• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1 large onion, diced
• 1 large bell pepper, minced
• 3 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans
• 2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
• 4 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 3 jalapeno peppers, minced (Optional)
• ½ cup chili powder
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

1. Cook and stir the beef, onion, and bell pepper in a large pot over medium heat until the beef is brown and onion and pepper are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain grease from beef
2. Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce, jalapenos (if using), chili powder, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Bring mixture to a slow boil; cover and reduce heat. Simmer chili at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally so that it does not stick. This chili can be simmered for several hours; the longer you simmer, the more flavor you will get.

Oh boy

[DavidNorcross]

Of course it does! Right Panhead John ?

[DavidNorcross]

Love it!

[Panhead John]

DavidNorcross Not to change the subject but if you and Teresa make the Cajun Country MeatUp in October, dinner at the Poor Boy Riverside Inn is on me! [unless I feign drunken memory lapse]

[DavidNorcross]

Panhead John we are sure considering it. We were actually looking into flights last night. I am planning a trip to FL to see my sister in the fall and that is the only real stumbling block. I think it is a given that your drunken stooper will surely be in existence regardless. Hoping we can pull this one off.

Beans for the fight.

I’m not taking the bait this time, no way. That will have to be addressed in the upcoming book I hope Panhead John will coauthor with me. The tentative title is “Hell no we don’t do that in Texas”.

[Panhead John]

Ain’t gotta ask ME twice!

[bbqLuv]

I will be a proofreader. That sounds like fun!

I would like an autographed copy.

[tstalafuse]

Nope. Just nope. But if it did, it sure as hell wouldn't be canned beans, which is the give away this a faux recipe. I bet the author snuck across the Arkansas border.

Bush Beans are very good in a pinch.

[Bkhuna]

I have no problems with beans as a side with my chili. Like outside in the garbage.

[bbqLuv]

You like chili with beans in the garbage?

Now I know why I couldn't sleep last night.....something was wrong on the internet!

"Deeply impressed with a sense of responsibility devolving on me, I can not, in justice to myself, repress the emotion of my heart, or restrain the feelings which my sense of obligation to my fellow-citizens has inspired...." -- Sam Houston's Inaugural Address as President of the Republic of Texas, 1836, and while chili is not mentioned in the speech, he surely was thinking of it, because, Texas.

Texas chili does not have beans. Period. End of story. Do not pass go; do not collect $200. Quod erat demonstrandum!

Something, something, Remember the Alamo!

[tstalafuse]

I am pretty sure it was, "Remember no beans in the chili, Remember the Alamo!, Remember Goliad", which was shouted as a reminder to those cooking dinner that Chili ain't gots no beans, and the might as well go ahead and win the battle for Texas Independence.

[Clawbear57]

You all are trying to rewrite Texas chili. Y'all know goodin dog well beans are in Texas chili😂😂😂.

[mcook2201]

[Clawbear57]
