Out here, everything hurts.




Hello, Goon Chefs.

It is that time once again. Time to take up your knives and vie for supremacy in the battlefield that is this, our virtual Kitchen Stadium.

As your Chairman, I have long pondered a dangerous question. What is chili? Are beans required, or verboten? Must there be meat? What spice is sublime? As the weather here turns cold, and the tailgating begins, this question demands an answer.

Today, we shall attempt to find this answer in the fires of culinary combat.

Your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to make me a chili. Document your steps. Justify to your fellow chefs and your Chairman why yours is the One True Chili.

Your peers will judge you, and a winner will be crowned.



The Rules :

1. All may enter. This challenge stretches beyond the confines of Something Offal, and to all in the land. Bring those who have never competed, as opinions on chili are nigh universal, and they too will have much to argue.

2. You must justify why your chili is, in fact chili. A lack of effort will bring shame upon you.

3. The deadline for entry is the end of October. Once November begins, this battle is ended, and you shall face the judgement of your peers.


The Rewards :

The winner will receive a physical token of my esteem, shipped to them upon giving me a place to ship it, and a forum upgrade of their choice, but those are simply tokens. The true reward is forcing the competition to acknowledge that your chili is the true chili!

The losers will receive the burning shame of defeat.




ALLEZ CUISINE!

I might enter this if I have time... September's a busy month though!

Edit: the deadline is really harsh, just over two weeks? Can you push it out to mid-October?

I just made myself single and it's been cold up here, recently. Is it okay for me to just make a chili and post pictures, even if most of it is stolen from Kenji Lopez's recipe except with extra ingredients?

Let it never be said that I am not a benevolent chairman.

New deadline is now 1 November!

All I ask is that you make a case for why your chili is the best chili. I am not about to judge where you got your inspiration and recipe from.

Proper chili has both beef and beans and anything lacking either is not real chili.

ICSA 67 LOSER

I am a pilgrim searching for the ultimate chilli. Many recipes I have tried, and although my quest is not yet complete, here is my recipe so far:

Ingredients (serves 4 - 10)
Chillies (the variety is not important, but pretty colours made it look even more appetizing).
500g ground beef (preferably with extra gristle for texture).
1 can of baked beans (brand to taste)
1kg plain white rice.



Method
Open the can of baked beans and decent into a microwave-proof container.
Add the ground beef (no need to boil beforehand).
Mix well.
Add chillies on top.
Microwave on full power for 5 - 25 minutes.
Serve with white rice.



What did I win?

Baked beans in tomato sauce? Is that... is that one of those foods that's so bad that you only find it in Britain, or is that just chili without the meat and spices?
