Chili Origin
Combining beef and chili peppers in a stew is a distinctly Mexican concept, although it is not clear when the pre-Columbian tomato-based stew evolved into the thick, meaty chili recognized today.Chili Variations
- Texas Chili - Simple and strict, Texas chili must not contain beans or any other vegetable besides peppers. Vegetarian or turkey chilis are also unacceptable. The chili must contain either beef or venison
- Cincinnati Chili - A thinner sauce than Texas chili, Cincinnati chili is used most often as a topping on pasta or hot dogs. It contains beef, peppers and often cinnamon or chocolate.
- Chili Verde - This variation contains slow-cooked pork, most often with tomatillos and jalapenos as the main peppers. It is frequently used as a filling inside a San Francisco Burrito.
