Must-Read: Obey These Chili Rules
As I write this, my beans, kidney and black, are soaking in water overnight as I prep my various foods for the most important day of the year: Super Bowl Chili Cook-Out Day! (The reason I’m writing this before the cook-out, by the way, is because I figure I’ll be laid up both Monday and Tuesday with a bout of massive intestinal inflammation and destruction. Wouldn’t have it any other way!) But whilst performing my massive amount of research for how to concoct the best chili for this cook-out– I’m looking at you, Hottest Chili Award! — I came across this Men’s Health article detailing the 11 Ultimate Rules of Chili that I figured is a must-read for you all, even if the Super Bowl is over.
Among the most vital rules:

?Josh Sharkey, Bark Hot DogsUltimate Chili Rule # 8
Dark Beer and Coca-Cola. They act as a sweetener and a thickener.
