Beans in Chilli??? Sacrilege!!!
I must admit, the Texas chili that they serve every once in awhile on the platform is awesome (primarily because it is made with leftover tenderloin or prime rib from the night before)., but the current camp boss on my rotation ain't from Texas. And I am stuck on that rotation until at least January.
For mine, I use ground beef (or turkey), and that requires beans (pinto, kidney, and black). The only thing I ever got from my father's side of the family was the chili recipe (Amish country - PA). Bell peppers, onions, cumin, chili powder, coriander, allspice, soy sauce, tomatoes, beans. And garlic. Lots of garlic.
