  1. I am starving with the hunger. How about prepping sone tasty Irish Boxty, three ways ❤

  2. I love that feeling of a hot spoonful of delicious food fresh off the stove.

  3. Cooked this tonight, first time I've ever eaten a chili con carne and I'm 33. I don't like spice, but following this recipe and using a generous amount of sour cream to serve, I was surprised by the depth of flavour the dish had for the 45m cook time. I think the use of beef tallow and giving the mince some dark browns when browning really takes it to the level the dish is famous for. Awesome meal, thanks guys 👌.

  4. Anyone else thinking of the song "Chili con Carne" that every high-school jazz choir sings? It's been stuck in my head for 20 years. Now it's in yours 😈

  5. There are 2 factions for chili lovers in Texas…those who are bean free and those with beans. Definitely agree with my fellow Texans that you need some rice or cornbread for the complete meal. Keep cooking Andy!
