Re: Who wants to try my chili?
My understanding is that an authentic Texas chili requires a few Texas rat whiskers, but I've never been able to find them in the spice section of the grocery here in the North. Another ingredient that is often used is a "splash" of Rebel Yell whiskey (maybe a ½ cup) that ads a bit of "smoke" and anti-Yankee attitude to the dish.
I agree - no beans, and don't dare sneak in any cloves.
