Cincinnati Style Chili - Beans or No?

Making this tomorrow for the first time to climb that mountain. Recipes I've found are split on beans. I realize it boils down to personal taste, but wanted to consult F&D expertise from those who have made it for their opinion.

No beans ala skyline

Personal preference. Skyline serves it both ways btw. If you do beans they should be no more than maybe 30% of your Cincy chili. It's a really interesting flavor and works surprisingly well. Total gut bomb though.

It is, I use to work for GE in Erlanger KY which was right next to Cincy.

Chili does not have beans.
Btw, do not look up "beans in the chili" on Urban Dictionary...

Thanks, all.

I put them in my chili because I like them. My wife makes chili a good bit and she does not put beans in hers.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to look it up.Posted on 9/10/17 at 11:57 am to Martini
I'm making a big batch. I think I'll split it to freeze and add beans to the half that I'll use down the road for chili dogs.

I don't know much about it, but it looks like canned kidney beans are among the traditional optional toppings (along with shredded cheddar cheese and diced onions).

Thank you, Twenty - I did not know that.

The beans aren't in the chili.
Always go with the five way. Add hot sauce. Oyster crackers on the side.
For coneys, just the chili with mustard, onions, and cheese. And oyster crackers on the side.

Large five way with hot sauce and crackers is awesome but will put you down for a few hours.

There is no other way. That crap with ground beef and tomatoes is chili sauce.
