We Officially Request the Following......

And now you are officially dead to me.

 

Calm down, Skeeter...

 

If the que is good enough, you don’t need sauce!
I don’t see how a chile can’t have beans in it to be good.
I’m more committed to que than chile. Wonder if we could mix up enough sauce to improve a chile? Let’s do it!

 

Yeah, I mean I grew up in Fort Worth, and I loved, and still do, wolf Brand Chili with beans. Never understood the "you ain't a real Texan" because of beans in the chili thing.

Have several cans in the pantry right now.

 

If beans can't live with Chili, is there hope for any of us to get along?

 

Yes there is hope. My sister married a bean and chili man and although we were not happy about it, we have accepted him as family.

 

Blasphemy.

 

You bastard! I should call CPS on your ***. Chili Protective Services

 

I urge you to change your handle to 'Austin, Minnesota_Bill'

 

I can live with the no sauce zone with respect to Texas 'que.

However...beans have precisely ZERO place anywhere NEAR proper chili! And this is simply not up for debate!

 

Intolerant SOB

 

Hmmmph!

Now pass me the brisket dammit...

 

I grew up in Galveston and my mother was from Lafayette. I love my Chile over white rice.

 

Yes, that sounds good. I'm from New Orleans originally, rice goes with just about everything.

 

People in Oklahoma used to eat rice with milk and sugar for breakfast. God invented rice to have gravy over it, in which case gumbo qualifies as "gravy".

 

so the tomato concoction on spaghetti, is it a red sauce or red gravy, I must know....

An I guess Uncle Ben is toast as well? and "crackers"?

 

LC, you know in Texas the phrase for that acronym is pronounced as one word: "sumbitch"

.... for example: sometimes LC drinks far too much wine and his friends tell him to settle down & quit acting like a sumbitch!

 

I always like hot chili over spagetti noodles garnished with grated medium or sharp cheddar cheese.

 

Usually eating chili over spaghetti is referred to as Cincinnati Chili.

 

Mom fed that to me in deep South Texas for breakfast. You left butter off the recipe, but aside from that, I recall it fondly.

 

Same with my Momma in NE Texas Sangre. In fact we actually had it for supper on occasion not bfast. I also remember her saying some nights we were having a watermelon for dinner. Not much money in my youth. Didn’t realize till I was much older.

 

I think we also had cinnamon in it

 

Wait, did you say "white"?

 

OMG! A racist saucist.

 

Ricist!

 

They do that in India, too; they just call the gravy “curry.”

 

I meant "marble"...

 

@LonghornCatholic this was on as we drove back to Chicago area from Fort Worth yesterday after several days in Galveston.
