  1. Also, check into the two different styles of CARNE GUISADA. The Rio Grande Valley version has a brown gravy and it is SUPERIOR to the red sauce version outside of the Valley. 🙂 And in Texas, no beans is the general rule but please people, don't flame me. LOL But thank you because we don't add beans today. (Or the last 50 years that I've been alive!)

  2. I love The Phoenix Cafe and had no idea why chili is their only menu item until today, nor why "Gebhart's Chili Powder" is painted on the side of the building and you can tell the paint is very, very old. I've tasted history many times without even knowing it!

  3. I don't like beans, so I've always been more into the Texas style ones. I make mine with finely pureed tomato and an unpalatable-to-normal-humans amount of salt.

  4. My wife would flip out over seeing that fat in the bottom of the pot and insist on scooping it all out. Why does she hate flavor so much?? 😆😂

  5. Try making spring roll but in a stretcher as it was used in the empire of Vietnam where was used to defeat chinese

  6. Of course, I hope you heated your tortillas up :). If you don't have a comal, a dry skillet will do. I grew up with my parents frying corn tortillas in not-hot-enough oil. 🤮 And in San Antonio, they put chili on everything, tater tots, nachos, etc. 🤤

  7. Can we all agree that we're all right on chili? Ain't never had a bad bowl of chili, 'cept when it came from a can.

  8. Texan present, I think the whole 'beef only, no beans!' thing is a result of cattle ranching here. Makes sense, no? You need more beef, only beef, in your chili! If you put in beans, you don't need as much beef.

  9. Live there and all over texas I’m a native and always will be but I did go and spread faith cross cali but I left cause that’s sodom and gamora

  10. Ordered your book, only recently found out about your channel and what you do, but love the content. I wish I could make it to a signing, excited to get my hands on the book at least.

  11. If your hill-to-die-on is that chili should never have beans, then your potential cause of death is all too common: congestive heart failure.
