• beans and chili

    But not together!

    Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

    I now wish I had bought 25 pounds of steak instead of just 20.

    Doesn't everyone. I wonder what the original context for that

    Chichi Wang said that recently about pork cheeks in her Nasty Bits
    column on Serious Eats. But I think she was echoing a line about
    marijuana in an old Cheech and Chong movie.

    at the Hampton Inn in Antwerp [...] I discovered that the best
    thing on the morning buffet was beans baked in tomato gravy.

    I think they make a fine breakfast food.

    Chili [...] Bell pepper - any colour 1 chopped

    I'd pass altogether on bell peppers, especially green ones.

    Substitute a hot pepper
    a jalapeno might go well.

    I'd choose a ripe red chile, not too hot, maybe a Fresno.

    Kathy Pitts turned me onto frito pies a couple of decades ago.

    They used to sell them as a fundraiser for the pep club or
    something during my high school's football games.

    I believe it actually originated down there in Texas. Served right
    in the bag of corn chips. The concept made its way to Yellowknife a
    couple of years ago when one of the food truck guys served them in
    the parking lot of a trade show I was running a booth in.

    Cheers

    Jim

    ... Chili, like politics or religion, can never be discussed lightly.
