Had a bad craving for chili, so I stopped by the Commissary and got some stuff on the way home.

I call it Cheater Chili because it is quick, uses readily available ingredients, tastes great, and is quick and easy....

I don't want to post the recipe, because I don't want to be banned, and I add chili beans...

Still looks great for a quick meal!

and I add chili beans...
Ah, the great war between beans or no beans in chili. I knew a Texan (dead and gone now) who always referred to chili with beans as "Mexican succotash". I'm fine with chili with beans, or not. The one thing I do with chili, beans or nor, is to use stew meat instead of ground.

I lived in Central and West Texas for 13 years. I had Chili with and without beans.....

No bloodshed either way!
 
Looks good from here, I use Chili magic and add red peppers and onions, it's always good, never too hot or blah , really good for cheating lol
 
Looks and sounds delicious! I've had chili a couple times this year but think that first batch always tastes the best. Chili at our house always has beans as well...no beans then it's just some type of soup. Made some chuck Chili last year, that was really good as well.

Chunks of meat rather than ground is how we all like it. We will eat it both ways. Orders from the wife say that chili should always be made with stew meat, rather than ground, and that works for me!
Oh, and she likes beans, so it's chili with stew meat and beans.

Looks good Bill, and it semi-home made. I've been known to crack open a can of chili when the craving hits, and I don't feel like whipping up a batch.

Point for sure

Wolf brand is the best canned stuff I've found. Nothing like what I make, but it is good in a pinch.
 
How's the old saying go...beans beans, the more you eat the more you toot, it's a wonderful fruit! :emoji_blush:

Looks awesome! Our house is definitely equal opportunity when it comes to Chili, beans, no beans, stew meat, brisket, ground beef…..it all depends on how we are feeling, time, mood, or what’s in the pantry already!
