      • I like it both ways. When I do use beans, it’s home made Pintos only, and extra chili powder. Now that we are talking Chili, my wife, MoMo’s two son-in-laws compete in Terlingua every year. This past Nov. One placed first in brisket, the other grand champion in chicken and 2nd in chili. Those boys can make some meat. In all the guys won 6 of the competitions, so the boys from West Texas were mad and going all out next year.

            • Interesting. Last time for me was in college at Southwest Texas State University (now Texas State). Good old days back in my young prime. About 20 years ago, a man who worked for me at HEB was going through a tough divorce. So 2 others & I decided to get a van & take him there & Big Bend. Well, it rained so by Fort Stockton we decided to go to Guadalupe Peak instead. But it continued raining. So we went to Carlsbad Caverns. We planned to camp there, but it stormed there too. So we finally found suitable camping at the Grand Canyon. Ha! Ha! So… while we were there, we drove on to Las Vegas. So, after a few hard nights there, we drove to LA to see Hollywood, Pacific, Disneyland & Universal Studios.
              By that time, we were so tired we made a straight beeline via Phoenix back to San Antonio.
              It was pretty much all spontaneous because of the storms. We never made it to our original destination, but it was just what our friend needed–to get away.

              • My kind of trip. My son took his family last March and it was cold and wet in Terlingua. He also took my grandsons Boy Scout troop camping there and it darn near killed the kids. Three had to leave because of heat related illness. It’s not a place for the weak.

  3. I’m keeping this one! Right now I’m having homemade chili. My sister informed me that in Texas, no one eats chili with beans. Is this for real? I’ve got ground beef and red kidney beans in this, and as hot as I can stand it, which is pretty hot. With cheese melted in. Supper!

  4. Be aware, from a native Texan, yes we eat chili with beans. Some moron in Lubbock started the chili with no beans movement because he didn’t know how to make decent edible Pinto beans. Jeez, the misinformation that is out there. Wait, just like our government! Ha.
