Huh? Nuked Paprika? Ich weiß, was Sie denken und Ihr Recht (gut, außer diesem Kerl dort, ist er weg vom Thema waaaayyy). Unsere Freunde rüber an Cin Paprika sind mit einem neuem herausgekommen, bereit, Paprikapaket zu essen und es ist!!! köstlich!
Cin Paprika-herzliches Bier mit Bohnen Bestandteile: Rindfleisch, Wasser, weiße Bohnen, Huhnfleischbrühe des Paprika Seasoning {Paprikapuder, entwässerten Zwiebeln, entwässerten Knoblauch, Salzkreuzkümmel, Rindfleischfleischbrühe (Salz hydrolysierte Sojaprotein, Stoff [Zucker und/oder Traubenzucker], fettes natürliches Aroma des Aromas [teilweise hydriertes Maisöl, Würzen] [autolyzed Hefeextrakt, Salz, Zucker, Molkeprotein, Milchsäure], Sellerie, Zwiebel Puder, entwässertes gekochtes Rindfleisch, carmel Farbe, Rinderbestand, Binatriuminosinate und Binatriumguanylate, autolyzed Hefeextrakt, Aromen [enthält natürlich vorkommendes Glutamat],) (Salz, Stoff [Zucker und/oder Traubenzucker und oder sorbital], hydrolysierte Maisprotein, natürliche Aromen [autolyzed Hefe Extrakt, Salz, suagr, Molkepuder, Milchsäure], Huhnfett, Binatriuminosinate und Binatriumguanylate, getrocknetes Huhn [enthält natürliches Aroma], Gelbwurzfarbe, Zwiebel Puder, Sellerie, Knoblauchpuder [enthält natürlich vorkommende Glutamate],), roter Pfeffer, Silikondioxid (Fließenmittel}, Jalapeno Pfeffer, Gewürz [, Tomatepaste, geänderte Nahrungsmittelstärke.
Ja schrieb ich gerade herauf alle jene Bestandteile, ja war die die längste Bestandteilliste, die ich überhaupt oben geschrieben habe und ja, sogar an meinen 50 Wörtern pro schreibengeschwindigkeit der Minute sie für immer nahm! Sowieso habe ich vieles vorbereiten lassen, um Nahrungsmittel so zu essen und sie kommen immer hübsches mildes heraus, schmeckend. Knowing Cindy’s reputation for quality, I was interested to see her take on this type of product. Being of the belief (let the discussions begin!) that all chili should have beans in it, I chose that packet to review.
After a brief 90 second nuking, the very hot packet was poured out in my bowl and I paired it with one of my homebrews (Passow’s Miami Wiess). Thick and chunky, the smell of this must have been amazing because it instantly attracted the family dogs, noses working overtime. I was amazed at the shear size of the meat chunks as I was expecting not as much to be in there.
Mmmmm, this is a great tasting chili. Warming and hearty the chili powder and tomato come right into the forefront. Hints of onion, cumin, and pepper dance around my tongue. Bovine chunks delight my palate with a splash of Jalapeno and Cayenne tingling in the after taste.
This is a chili geared towards the masses so I didn’t expect it to have any real heat. So, I suggest the chilli-heads to add their own in the form of some Habanero powder if you feel the need to bump up the heat.
With that, the results are in, this is the most fresh tasting ready to serve product I’ve eaten. It tastes almost as fresh as the times I’ve had her chili right out of her crock pot. I don’t know how Cindy did it, but she did it. I found myself licking the bowl just to squeeze every last drop of flavor. In retrospect, the beer choice was decent, but a nice Rye Ale or robust Porter would be in order, especially if enjoying this during the Fall or Winter.

OK dude, chili and beans have beans. Real chili doesn’t… lol
I tried Cindy’s chili in New Mexico and I have to say I was delighted with the taste and texture.

I’ve always known chili as being with beans from when I was a kid. But, when we make NM chili, it’s usually without it. Also, all the Cincinnati chili places make it without beans, but you can add them. So, typically the Cinci style doesn’t have them.
I LOVE Cindy’s stuff. Glad you had a chance to try this, Jon. I agree with the Porter, too.

This stuff is really, really good for instant chili.
BTW, chili is REQUIRED to have beans to be considered real chili.;-)

Beans in chili doesn’t work for me. The best chili I have ever had was beanless. Texas chili has no beans in it. I don’t know who here has ever visited St Louis and tried their version of pizza. Well it is the worst pizza I have ever experienced. Imagine matzah with sauce and cheese on it. So to me, if you are going to get feedback from someone from STL about food, he better be a transplant from another region.
Btw…Cin Chili is great with some Oaxacan.

Buddah you must have sampled some of this chili and beans when we were at the FF show….sheesh

I have sampled it at every WoF and FFS, but only the non-bean version aka the better version. Try to pay attention.

I do pay attention….You were asleep when I was awakened by a lot more than your snoring.

Buddah, cute but bad attempt at deflecting criticism of beanless-chili.
I love St. Louis style pizza (and even I admit it’s a VERY acquired taste), but I also love other pizza variants such as some New York and Chicago style pies when they’re made right.
The reason I’m not crazy about chili with no beans is that I’m not a fan of any liquidy dish that’s not heavy in solid ingredients. I hate soup, stew, chili, etc. that’s primarily flavored water. I hate slurping on mostly broth or sauce. It’s gotta be chunky, hearty and full of real substance. Add plenty of beef, onions, tomatoes, and beans to my chili, please.
To me, eating chili with no beans is like eating plain tomato sauce with meat. Sure, it may taste good in the saucepan, but it’s “incomplete” – you’ve got to apply it to spaghetti or some other pasta. Some goes with chili sauce and meat…there’s just something “missing” to add heft and heartiness to it, and that something would be beans.

Scott, It sounds to me like you’re eating the wrong kind of chili. I doubt that anyone likes “liquidy flavored water type chili”. Real chili sure the heck doesn’t need beans to make it Hearty. That is unless you’re lacking fiber in your diet
Ask the International Chili Society if there are beans in chili!

St Louis only knows ribs, even if the best ribs are actually made elsewhere. If he likes St Louis pizza, that says a lot about his tastes, so no reason to even discuss the aspects of chili with a man who is lost. If I was a religious man, I would say a prayer for your tastebuds Scott. One day you might experience it the way chili was meant to be eaten, beanless with more heartiness than a man can withstand.

I visited a hot sauce shop yesterday and asked if they had Cin Cin chili, but unfortunately they didn’t. I’ll either pick some up at Zestfest or the next show I go to. I hate to pay the dang shipping charges!

Surely someone can enlighten Mr. Roberts with a truly delicious bowl of Texas Red.

If chili didn’t have beans, then there would be no such thing as Chili No Beans.
EXAMPLE
Chili has beans.
Chili No Beans does not.
It ain’t chili without beans.
Cin Chili is some good stuff.
