Learned about the blasphemy of beans-in-the-chili from my friend from TX...from Midwest and yes, usually ground beef, onions, BEANS😁, & sweet & hot peppers & Roma tomatoes. Not soup but not classic chili as you describe either. We have some decent chili making competitions up here ...get a bit of everything there.
Wondering what goes into yours in addition to the meat?

Oh no you don't. I'm not giving out my recipe ... 😆
Suffice to say there are several kinds of chili that will qualify. And yes it's the Texans that get bent about the bean/no bean thing the most. I'm bi-legume, can take it or leave it. Sweet peppers and green peppers are not a thing that qualifies something as chili. You need Chiles. After that, there's a panoplyof things that can be added and may still legitimately be called chili. White bean and chicken w/ green chiles? Yep.
@FireMonkey I do add bell peppers *as well* as chili peppers but who is making chili without them?
That's like making chicken soup without the chicken 🤣
@FireMonkey I just bought bird eye and scotch bonnets. We're good to go! The bell peppers are for colour and texture 🤣
@UmbaSaffire @stueytheround
That's a level of marvelous creativity, the combination of sweet, mild and hot peppers, your chili judge gives you a blue ribbon
@FireMonkey ...I'll tell my friend - she will be thrilled! 😁

@stueytheround
With ya Stuey...lol😅
@stueytheround @UmbaSaffire
All right, that'll work. You got a pass on that one.
@stueytheround @FireMonkey
..lol😅...sounds like torture FireMonkey
(does it count to use homegrown roasted poblanos, hot and sweet banana peppers, jalepenos and sometimes an Anaheim🌶--asking for a friend)😁
