yes, but they're better prepared separately.

Chili without beans is called meat sauce

>>6836863
Yes, even if you are a pedant. Chili is rancher food. You take your meat and chili powder out on the drive. You can add whatever else you want to the pot. It's really not a hard concept.

What about spaghetti? IMO Chili isn't Chili without spaghetti in it.

By definition it can exist without beef; figure the rest out.

>Is chili still technically chili if it has beans in it?

Chili _without_ beans technically isn't chili, it's just spicy meat stew.

Chili is a bean stew that was developed by Mesoamericans, which may or may not have had meat in it depending on availability and that meat would have been whatever was around, venison, rabbit, turkey, etc.

Sorry, but chili is an ancient Mesoamerican dish that consists of beans and chili peppers eaten with corn tortillas, meat was optional and for dirt-poor Aztec peasants, a rare treat.

Let me guess. Wikipedia is wrong about everything and you have detailed historical records that can back up your claim, but you don't want to actually post them because the world isn't prepared for the knowledge, right?

its chili with beans in it. pure chili does not have beans, beans are a side dish.

>>6837202
Yes

Isn't texas the only place on earth dumb enough to care whether "true" chili has beans in it?

>>6837217
I'm not buying what you're selling. You want to convince me that YOU know more than the ICS? Scan it and post it.

Otherwise, shut the fuck up.

It's only chili if it does have beans in it

>>6837228

Corn, squash and BEANS were the basic foods of N.American Indians and chilies were developed in Mesoamerica and used to flavor BEAN stews that everybody of all social ranks ate, with meat only being included if one could afford it.
