My crazy Texas friend says it’s wrong to put beans in chili, are they crazy?
Idk how you’re supposed to eat this like hot soup of nothing but ground beef and tomato paste without beans and veggies to give it some kind of depth. Texans are incorrect about chili

texas’ official dish is chili con carne, which traditionally uses larger chunks of something like a chuck roast or other stewing cuts, and doesn’t include tomatoes. it’s usually a ‘sauce’ made of toasted and pureed peppers and stock.
that said, i like beans in my chili and i do like the tomatoe-y, vegetable filled version. they’re not wrong though, it’s just a different (and older, really) recipe.
