Chili con carne

Chili con carne (or Chili for short) is a spicy stew-like dish, the essential ingredients of which are beef, pork, venison, or other mature meat, and chile peppers. Variations, either geographic or by personal preference, may use a meat substitute and may add tomatoes, onions, beans, and other ingredients. There are also many versions of vegetarian chili, made without meat. The name "chili con carne" is a slight corruption of the Spanish chile con carne, which means "chili with meat". Chili con carne is the official dish of the U.S. state of Texas.
