Beans result in a richer chili that keeps better, and its easier to pad out with a bit of extra fat and broth.

When I've had a mixed group over for chili, I make three pots: traditional, vegetarian/vegan bean and a wildcard (like pumpkin chili, eggplant chili, chicken chili etc). Also, several toppings, mix-ins and fixings.
The meat eaters get traditional, the balanced eaters can mix traditional and bean, the vegetarians and vegans get bean alone and the more adventurous can try the wildcard. It's a nice set up and I miss doing it. Fucking pandemic.

Well thanks. It's not really that much prepwork nor clean up. Chopping all the onion and chilies, powdering the dry chilies and cutting up the beef is the worst of it, generally, especially considering the chili is kinda just doing its thing with no human input required for most of the time that goes into making it.
Clean-up ain't so bad, either, since during the off-time while the chili/s is/are simmering, I just wash up what's been used so only the pots are left. After I tip it out into warming plates on the buffet, the pots get washed real quick, too.

Not Anon, but chuck was $3.99/lb a week or two ago in SNJ. Maybe three weeks, idfr.

I stocked up a few weeks before that and on... I forgot what the cut is called. I asked you guys about it and was told it's a great cut for stews and pot roasts, which was I wanted it for anyway. Top round? Bottom round? I forgot. Anyway, it was $2.99/lb. Store limit was four packages, so I bought the four heaviest I could find. Fuck the haters. Only came out to just over $60. Portioned it up and froze it.

Beans and meat because more protein and so it doesn’t feel like I’m eating a failed taco soup.

[Anonymous No.17715710]

Chili implies beans. Without it it's just meat soup.

You mean when the texans ambushed them while they were sleeping during siesta hour.
Great thing to brag about, jumping people in their sleep and acting like its a fair fight.

True texan chili is made without beans, but is delicious with beans and goes a lot farther.
