Where is ol' Crimson Galoot anyway?  He was a bit of a computer guru....never met him but he helped me via email a while back to do some decently advanced stuff to my laptop.

I may still have his email address, need to check and tell him to stop by.  

Also, where is MextheDog and Shiner?

That thing has a cartoon of a Texan asserting "Ya can't just call anything chili" and then goes on to explain how they added chili powder to their not-chili.  It left out the cartoon of the grouchy Louisianan who replies "Ya can't just put chili powder in something and call it chili."  

Heysoos Kreesto....you know how many dishes I grew up with that would be called "chili" if that were the case?  

I also appreciate how the map of "greater Cincinnati" clearly includes large parts of Kentucky and even Indiana.  Okay.  

Speaking of chili, my 4th Annual Cocktail Party Viewing and chili plans for the weekend are canceled due to being out of town for a funeral.  I got married right before football season so as not to put anybody out, and I hope I have the good sense one day to leave this world in the off-season also.

My taco meat has chili powder in it.  It's not chili.

Although I have made chili tacos in the past, quite tasty.

Northern KY is indeed metro Cincy with many chili places.  Indiana is less so, quite rural out there, though the loop freeway runs through Indy (I275).

Speaking of chili dogs, this joint is "in"famous in the ATL.    I took my wife there, once, I'm not sure why I viewed it as a treat when I was a kid.

I'd probably enjoy any and all of that.  

We don't really have any chili-dog joints around here.  Houston has James Coney Island, but they've never made it to Austin.

Sonic makes a chili dog, but I've never had it.

I'm meeting some people for lunch at Coney I-Lander.

Chili, cheese, no onions for me.

I once heard an oral history of how the "Coney Island" hot dog store came to Tulsa as told by Cristos Economou, they Greek immigrant who came here in--IIRC--the 1920s. There were such stores around the country. I don't know if it was a franchise or something looser than that.

A key point he made about the chili he used (developed?) was that it has to be mild so that it does overwhelm the wiener.

I swear, sometimes I just wish everybody would just STFU about chili. Talk about politics, religion , whatever. I bet if you do a search for chili on this site you would get more hits than Biden or Trump combined. 


🤣

Ok, I’m only half joking.

Considering we tend not to talk politics around here, aside from a couple of posters that just can't seem to help themselves, you're probably right.

But, why WOULDN'T we want to talk about chili?  It's delicious, and we're finally getting some slightly cooler weather which is right when I start to crave it.

My wife picked up some "wagyu" ground beef at Costco today so chili is on the horizon.  She also bought some nice looking ahi tuna steaks that will be dinner tonight.  They had Kirkland Brunello for $20 a bottle and I bought "several".  Brunello is high on my list of wines I  like.
