I’m entering a chili cookoff tomorrow at work, and apparently I have to have a name for my chili. I’m stumped, so I thought I’d throw it out there.
A description: it’s made with big chunks of chuck roast, black beans, lots of onion and garlic, and my homemade top secret chili powder. It’s very rich, and spicy enough to let you know it’s chili but not searing.
I’d like clever but not cutesy.
Any thoughts?
You put beans in it, which leads me to suspect that Silenus will be here shortly to call you a blasphemor. Maybe call it Blasphemous Boil?
I, on the other hand, approve of beans in chili, so if you offered me some, I’d probably just call it supper.
You’re asking here, so how about Straight Dope Chili?
I too love beans in chili, though I think yours is the first time I’ve heard of using black beans.

“WTF? ZOMG! BEANS IN CHILI Chili”
In chile contests are bean and non-bean separate categories, or do they all just got at it?
I entered and “won” a very small contest. They gave out three prizes but there were only seven contestants so I don’t mean to sound like that gives me cred. We had best red, best green, and best tasting (which I won, despite the fact that they thought I made it “hot” when in fact I toned it down tremendously).
Yeah, beans in chili, what’s that about? That’s like “chili lite” or something.
