Best Chili in Nashville?

[mikegideon]

Chili is from Texas. If you're a purist, chili is Texas style, and everything else is "something like" chili.

I my 31 years in Cincinnati I saw lots of people eat Skyline type chili all by itself. Actually my Dad prefers it like that, without spaghetti. That would be just called Chili on the menu.

If you pour the chili over thin spaghetti it would be a 2-way,

Add finely shredded cheedar then you are having a 3-Way,

Put onions on it before adding cheese and you have a 4-Way,

Put some kidney beans on it before onions and cheese and you have a 5-way.

My personal preference is a 4-Way with some Franks Hot Sauce dashed on top the of the cheese.

I really, really want some Chili right now.

Another good chili is the one they have at Steak & Shake. Great with cheese and onions added in...and its also available in a can form Kroger!

All these years and apparently my wife has been refusing to have finely shredded cheddar on her chili? Maybe I should explain to her what I meant...

I’m From Texas and to me chili is a relative term. I have had some with cat in it and it was really good, most of the time if it is good you don’t want to know what is in it.

I just worked up a new recipe for some back in June. It took about 5 pots before I had what I wanted. It started out as menudo but changed to chili about the 3rd pot. Sometimes you don’t need cow to make good chili.

You have talked it up so much, I'm gonna make some for supper.

MUST HAVE...grilled cheese with my chii.

I usually get the 3 way

I gotta be in a mood for Skyline Chilli..I do like it now and then...but the BEST spincter scorching chilli in the area has got to be the 5+ Alarm chilli from Judge Bean's BBQ on Church Street in Brentwood, Tn...its Gooooood

[Guest bkelm18]

I don't normally go for chili outside of my kitchen but every once in a blue moon on a cold day Wendy's chili hits the spot. For some reason a chocolate Frosty and a bowl of chili from Wendy's is like the perfect combo for me.

for a fast food joint wendys does have good chili another good one is actually from olive garden with the pasta fagioli

[Garufa]

Do ya'll know what goes into fast food chili? Yesterday's burgers.

The last bowl I ever ate from Krystal had half a patty in it.

Ok, WTF?

I like wendy's chili! Can't get it at Krystal, love the Krystal with cheese too much to go without those.

[FUJIMO]

And that's a BAD thing?

could be if the other half is hanging out of the cooks mouth. You know, the haired up grease ball cook that's in the back of the building beside the a/c unit smoking a butt and picking at an orifice !

Krystal

Can only hope it dies and is reincarnated as a White Castle

Can I get an "amen"?

The best use for Krystal burger meat is chili, since their attempt at immitating a real Slider is so feeble. I like Krystal, but almost never get their burgers when I go. I just hit the White Castle instead.

[kb4ns]

White Castle is a must anytime I'm in Nashville or Missouri. I don't know why the h*ll they won't open one here!!

I don't know why they opened them here, but they've been here close to 20 years. It's about as far south as i have seen them. I grew up with White Castle in St. Louis.
