Is Chili considered a soup?

I consider chili a stew.

A stew is a form of soup too though.

I think of a stew differently...like chicken stew or beef stew over rice. Thick and cooked down for a while. I got it good and jacked up with soup

Right, we need clear standards and definitions, or at the very least clear exclusions!

The main difference between soup and stews is the amount of liquid they contain. While soups contain enough cooking liquid to fill a bowl and allow its ingredients to float, stews contain just a bit of cooking liquid to simmer the other ingredients.

I can't speak for your chili, but mine is most definitely not a soup.

Chili should have a small, light roux made at the start to thicken the final product. Stews should have the same. Down vote me, I'm a got damn 5th generation Texan.

Congrats on the win my man. Didn't cook or vote but your dish looked (and I'm sure tasted) incredible.

I agree with this 100%.

4 cups fusilli con buco pasta
4 tablespoons butter - I used yogurt butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
3 cups shredded Havarti cheese (8 oz)
1/4 cup of finely chopped onion

May need a small amount of sugar to balance all that cheese out. I plan to refine this. I will never make mac & cheese again with out the roux!

1 - Cook and drain pasta.
2 - In black skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Using whisk, stir in flour, salt and onion. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until mixture smells nutty and is lightly golden, stirring constantly with whisk.
3 - Add milk. Continue to beat with whisk, scraping bottom of skillet until mixture heats to boiling. Mixture will thicken. Remove from heat; add cheese stir with whisk until smooth. Stir in drained macaroni.

Easy peezy!!!!!

I disagree, submit what you want and let the voters decide if it qualifies

Yep. Don't overthink this. Any conversation on this is not to be taken seriously, as this is all in fun. If you don't like someone's dish, don't vote for it.

Havarti is such an underrated cheese. It makes a killer grilled cheese due to its meltability.

The Texans I know put a little masa harina in their chili near the end of cooking to thicken it up a bit before serving.
