    I like all the above except for one part of Winger Ed's comment: "In Maryland, their chili is a can of grocery store spaghetti sauce, an extra can of water,
    and there is a package of hot dogs swimming around in it.
    As I recall, they also put a hand full of oyster crackers on top of that mess."

    I'm fixing to make a deer chili and cheese omelet for breakfast....slap yo momma's face good....but dont!
    When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!

    Maybe it is the Gulf Gumbo influence, but we eat Chili plain in a bowl or with chipped up smoked sausage cooked in, served over rice also. As I grow the little Thai bird peppers, green chipped up on top or dried and ground sprinkled on top, adds just a bit of a kick. See a few Tabasco bottle holsters on belts, here bouts. Can not eat Chili or gumbo without Tobasco.

    I guess I am one of those immigrants from wild unexplored regions and distant territories, I like kidney beans in mine. For toppings cheddar cheese and saltines or cornbread, sometimes nothing.

    Mustang, I have a cousin that makes southern style chow chow that you could take a bath in. A big plate of pinto's, three quarter beans and one quarter Sylvia's chow chow and cornbread is about right. When her garden comes in she cans everything in sight and hunt more.

    My special deer meat chili gets a topping of chopped Vadelia onion, fine shredded longhorn cheese and a small handfull of Frito's, just for fun.

    PS I use the same for "Chili Size" omelets, chili dog's.

    Deer chili is good anyway ya make it.
    It'd probably be good served on a slab of bark.

    Chopped onions, chopped green bell peppers, chopped jalapenos, crackers or tortillas on the side. Habanero sauce to taste.

    I build straight-up chili, no beans and no tomato products allowed in it. It doesn't need toppings, but I will allow some diced onions from time to time just to add a little crunch.

    Family always had macaroni noodles in the chili. Jalapenos were a favorite topping even at a very young age.

    Wisconsin here: sour cream, sharp cheddar shredded off the block (not that bagged crap covered in sawdust), and Fritos ON TOP! Chopped onions, jalepenos, crumbled bacon, cornbread, oyster crackers, or saltines are all perfectly acceptable.

    Some of the heathens in other parts of the state put cooked macaroni noodles in their chili. I can't think of a single restaurant around here that does that and it ought to result in 7 years of bad hunting.

    Chili up here ought to have a stew-like consistency: it should pile on the spoon and the bottom of the bowl should have pretty minimal liquid to finish off. This ain't tomato soup with beans and meat.

    I like many forms of chili....as long as it's not sweet! That said, my toppings are typically shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese and sour cream, maybe some Curry powder, lotsa pepper, maybe jalapenos,if I'm in the mood.

    I use chili to top tamales and cover it with grated cheese.
