- Chili con carne made without beans.
- 2024 January 10, Matilda Preisendorf, “Why Texas Chili Doesn’t Have Beans”, in Local Profile[1]:
- “I think there is probably no consensus on one idea (of what defines chili), but the reason why we don’t allow beans in chili is number one: real Texas chili has always been known as meat and the sauce with peppers,” Hancock said. “Beans don’t come into play at the cook-off because if our judges are trying to determine a taste, beans are a dominant flavor and we wouldn’t get the pure chili taste.”
