One can make one Hell of a pot of "chili" with Musk Ox...that has been proven and like you said, with a few witnesses.

Made a pot of chili tonight myself, but it wasn't that complicated. Eggplant? You got to be kidding! Some people watch to much cable! I'll watch the snow fall and listen to the coyotes howl!

Chili very well may have a broad spectrum of interpretaion, but if it has beans, its beans with meat, not chili.

Does look like a good bowl though if you add a side of cornbread.

4-5 strips of bacon Lots of black pepper shakes 1 package ground beef 1/2-1 lb. frozen turkey 2 onions 1 bell pepper 1 fennel 1-2 carrots 1/2 eggplant 2/3 tsp. curry powder 2 Tbsp. crushed red pepper 1-2 Tbsp. dried rosemary 1-2 Tbsp. adobo seasoning 5-7 garlic cloves 3 Tbsp. fig jam 1/2 cup yellow mustard 1-2 Tbsp. Thai chili sauce 1-2 Tbsp. hungarian paprika 1/2 cup barbecue sauce 1/3 jar of pickles (with juice!) 1 Poblano chili 1/4 cup brown sugar 1 tsp. cinnamon 2 Tbsp. salt 1/3 cup spaghetti sauce 1/2 pint of beer 1/2-1 cup rice 1 handful of baby arugula 2/3 cup cherry tomatoes 1 small package of crushed pork rinds 1 handful of cilantro unlimited pepper jack cheese 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper 1 can kidney beans 1 can pinto beans
To begin, pan-fry the bacon while adding black pepper to your liking. While the bacon is cooking, start slicing your vegetables. Cut your bell pepper, fennel, onions and carrots � trying to keep them all relatively equal in size. Make sure the vegetables are cut and ground through the food processor by the time the meat is ready. Grind your vegetables carefully; they should be coarse and varying in size. Slice the eggplant and Poblano chili and put those through the processor as well.
After the bacon has cooked, add some of the frozen ground turkey to the left over bacon fat. Simmer the turkey in the fat, keeping the turkey one level across so it cooks evenly. Sprinkle on some more cracked black pepper as the turkey cooks. Add your fresh ground beef and a good amount of salt to the ground turkey once it's thawed. Sprinkle some cinnamon and cayenne pepper, as well as paprika, crushed red pepper, adobo seasoning, dried rosemary and curry powder to the cooking meat.
Next, add vegetables to the ground meat. Mix the vegetables throughout the meat, allowing them to brown slightly. While the content's cooking, add pinto beans (sauce included) and kidney beans to the pot.
For the sauce, combine some garlic cloves, fig jam, mustard, Thai sauce, barbecue sauce, pickles (sauce included), brown sugar and spaghetti sauce. Puree the mixture in the blender thoroughly and add the finished product to the chili. Pour a half-pint of beer into the chili and allow it to simmer on a medium flame for about an hour. Add the rice and arugula, and finally some cherry tomatoes and crushed pork rinds. Stir evenly and serve with cilantro, pepper jack cheese and bacon bits on the side.
if its got more than 6 ingredients and cant be prepared over coals in a dutch, it aint chili.

One has to wonder �
Given the purists' limited acceptance of what's "really chili," how many of today's popular modern concoctions are really pizza? Seems like every day or so, somebody's dumping something else new on top of the real pizza that they started with. Only chocolate and blubber seem to have been overlooked. For now.
And does it all have to be on the same "pizza" at one time? Is there some way other than a divining rod to find the pizza under all that deli pile?

When it's good it's really good. When it's bad it's still pretty good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

If you make it you can call it chili. Hell, you can CALL it anything you want to. It may not be chili but you can call it so if you want. I know folks who call bologna round steak.
As to beans in chili if you like them nothing wrong with adding them to your bowl. Just please don't cook them in with your chili. Cook them separate and add them. One thing chili isn't is vegetable soup or bean stew.
You can add lots of things to your bowl as condiments if it strikes your fancy. Some likes chopped hard boiled egg, some likes cheese, some likes chopped ripe olives, some likes sour cream, some likes chopped avacado.
Just please please don't futz with the basic bowl of red.
Which is fine standing on its own.
