I will be making my first chili con carne having always made a vegetarian chili in the past. Having read the very extensive threads on this board I must admit to being a bit overwhelmed. As with chocolate chip cookies and...

Can I use ground chicken breast the same way I’d use ground beef in chili con carne? Do I want to?

chili con carne translates to Chili with Meat because chili is BEANS. I know the Texan faction will disagree but to me, it aint chili if it aint got beans

Tomatoes and spice make chili, whether con or sin carne, a tough match for wine. Beer’s your best option but, if you insist, go for an inexpensive savoury red table wine (Mexican Petite Sirah or Zin, Spanish Campo de Borja,...

I’ve never been to Daisy Mae, so I don’t know how it compares, but the chili at Paquito’s on 1st Avenue and 9th Street is sooooo gooooood. The best I’ve had in NYC at least. It has slices of carne asada...

Paquito’s on 1st Avenue between St. Mark’s and 9th Street. In the takeout side. The chili is very thick and long-simmered with beans, and instead of ground beef it has bits of carne asada steak. Jalapeno rounds are...

I think it has only one recipe, but A Bowl of Red, the history of Chile Con Carne (see Chowbooks), is a great one for the chili lover. See link. Link: http://www.chowhound.com/reading/reading.html#writings

While I can’t argue about El Gran Burrito (I also like it a lot), you should really check out Casita Taco in Burbank or North Hollywood. Their carne asada is great, and they also have excellent chicken tacos and burritos,...

Looking for the best chili con carne gravy you guys know about. Really I’m driving at who has the best cheese enchiladas with meat sauce.

about chili than I am about the cheese – it should not have beans and it should not be too meaty. Really, It shoujld be more like chili con carne meat sauce than traditional Texas chili. I also like some good spice. Any...

Hi everyone, I’m coming to Texas (mainly Austin / San Antonio area) from the UK in a few weeks' time and have been reading that Texas is the home of chili con carne. So... does anyone have any recommendations for the best...

I’m making my own chili con carne this weekend, but want to have some good veggie chili for those who are so inclined. I live in Silverlake/Los Feliz and would want to pick it up on a Sunday. Who has the best veggie chili...

calories. FYI, my favorite item on their menu is the Carne Con Queso taco... if you’ve never tried it I highly recommend it.

Carne asada is beef steak (the cuts of steak mentioned in the above post are good choices) marinated in lime juice, black pepper and garlic. I usually add ground chili powder and chopped cilantro. Marinate a few hours, any longer...
