I know Alton also advises adding tortilla chips to pressure good chili since that will totally dissolves them and thicken the sauce.

I use a roux made from Masa flour in mine, which is basically the same effect, but with butter instead of corn oil.  It is awesome.

Hmm, I should post my chili recipe somewhere.

God, I love the internet.

God, I love the internet.

Elapsed time: 2 minutes. I am stunned. Thank you, my dear.

I could see having cinnamon rolls for dessert after chili.  But together?  That's kinda weird.

[RMJ12345]

It actually sounds pretty delicious to me. I've never heard of it though.

See, I could completely see the spiciness of the chili... subtly continuing over in the spicy undercurrent of a cinnamon-based dessert quite well? Such as you don't think "spicy meal" and "sweet rich dessert" goes together but...

Chili-type flavour and cinnamon-type flavour have a set of similarities that probably make it awesome.

I could see the spicy-hot-savory and the spicy-sweetness going together, but maybe in a curry or something. Eating a Cinnabon and chili just sounds like a new level of American gluttony, like Snickers-stuffed cheesecake-covered deep-fried Twinkies or something.

Maybe if you are the type of person that eats cornbread smothered in honey with your chili, eating cinnamon rolls with chili would make sense because you're already consuming sugary bread. Next: Eating chili with snickerdoodle cookies.

that made me laugh real hard. hell of canned.

also I vomited a little bit?

The highest level of American gluttony in its purest and more proletarian fashion is the Chocodile.

It is a Twinkie... that is dipped in chocolate, kind of just because it could be done.

Dear Christ, it is awesome.

I thought a Chocodile also had chocolate cake and "creme"

Not the Chocodiles I have to try and stop myself from eating. Maybe they're different in other regions?

Just a full-on Twinkie covered in chocolate.

I've never actually seen a Chocodile, that's just what I thought they were based on Lore's Rating.

The mention of them in American Dad further proves the writers have never been anywhere near McLean. At least they don't say "the 495"

Sometimes i'll have a piece of cornbread with my chili like at our annual Soup Off auction if someone else has made some, but honestly a bowl full of tomatoes and beans and spices and more tomatoes and beef and God knows what else is pretty overwhelming. If I make chili from scratch the last thing I want to do is bake a tray of cornbread. I ate vegan chili for the longest time that chili with beef in it just seems way over-the-top. Chili is rich and satisfying as it is...adding cheese and sour cream and stuff is like gilding the lily.

And if putting some grated cheese on your chili is like gilding the lily... then eating a fuck*ng frosted Cinnabon with chili con carne poured over it just sounds like one of Ray's messy fantasies about a lady grinding pastries mercilessly beneath her nude bottom. Too much, dude, too much.

They were on Food Network's "Unwrapped" the other night, and that's what they were, regular Twinkies enrobed in chocolate.
