My First Frito Pie

[topher80]

Dear Great State of Texas,

I understand that I am a Canadian and therefore am detested by some on here. However, please read this letter addressed to all Texans and the state itself. Early this morning, I decided to make a large pot of chili in the hopes of producing my first Frito Pie. Unfortunately, Wolf Brand is unavailable here. Come dinner time, my wife, my old college roommate who is visiting this weekend, and I sat down for our first Frito Pie. Lots of Fritos, a pot of hot homemade chili, PBCP, tons of jalapenos, and a plethora of raw onion.

We love you Texas. My wife and I want to quit our teaching jobs here and move to whatever ISD will have this available on a weekly basis. My old roommate who is a high-rolling investment banker in the Toronto financial district would take a job selling tornado insurance in Texline if it meant he could get a bi-weekly fix of this delicious concoction.

If anyone wants to send me a can of Wolf Brand chili I would greatly appreciate it. I want to do Frito Pie justice because if it was this good with my homemade chili, I cannot imagine how much better it will be with the staple Wolf.

Satiated in the far, far north,
topher80

Congratulations topher! Now you can understand why we critique the c-stand frito pie so harshly.

Trust me when I say this. Even your frozen North Yankee for the Yankees home made chili beats the hades out of wolf brand.

au contraire mon frere, Wolf Brand has it's place and that place is on a bed of fritos.........
Topher, you can also sprinkle chopped pecans on the concoction.................

First question. No beans? You did not put beans in your chili did you?

 

[51eleven]

Second question, ground or chopped/cubed beef or venison?

 

[51eleven]

Third, tasetless, peppery, burns your tounge a little with each bite.

Use freshly shredded cheddar. A little cheddar, a little chili to melt it, graced with a little more shreadded cheddar, onioins, halpenos, to taste.

Chili is not chili without beans!!! I try to explain that to my husband but he still doesn't get it!! He FINALY made a pot of chili recently (beans and all) the way God intended!

Mae, real chili is made with coarse ground red meat, the proper seasonings, onions, & peppers. No beans!!!
Ofb, I understand your need to disgrace the wonderful food we know as chili by adding beans, but please try not to do it too often.

Ohio yankees desecrate chili by putting it on spaghetti, though to be fair, their weaka$$ chili is almost tasteless and probably needs the noodles to give it more flavor.

Well, being in Tennessee right now makes it a little better. At least the accents are more homelike. When I'm in Illinoisy I make our place a little Texas outpose (except for the cold weather).

Dear Mr 2fer Sir,

As I sit by the fire I've built in my "firepit", (AKA an old 24" bud rim), in my backyard enjoying a wonderful product of your fine country with a nice Rocky Patel Cigar, I must commend your countrymen on the fine job they do producing adult libations. If there is anything I can do for you, let me know.

BTW, I work with a guy who has made the final table at Teralingua many times. If you want any chili tips, let me know. I'll get you in touch with him.
