Western PA chili (now mind you, this is a place that puts a fried egg on a perfectly good hamburger and calls that good)
Pound hamburger, fried with 1 onion. Pour off grease. Add 1/2 cup ketchup, i can small tomatoe paste, 1/2 red pepper, 1 can kidney beans washed. cook for 1/2 day/ Add a little crushed red pepper late and eat with saltines.
Ya, I know, not real chili. But thats what momma made and I like it so shut the heck up or I will send momma your way, and no respectable Texan would not eat mommas chili and not tell her it was the best they ever ate with her sitting right there. So to maintain your manhood, don't be saying nothing about her chili or I am buying her a ticket to your place with her skillet packed!
In the voice of Foghorn leghorn :
There's somethin' just kinda 'eeewwww' about puttin' ketchup in a pot a chili.
