Yes and no. Good both ways. I prefer no beans, but that's if I'm making Texas or Cincinnati chili. Midwestern chili requires beans.

Like Mik, it depends.

If I'm cooking New Mexican, NO BEANS. Chile means chile, meat, spices and herbs. Other styles, fine. Beans galore.

I'm with PD on this one. Mexican green chili doesn't get beans. White and red chili does.

"New" Mexican red chile doesn't get beans either. Carne Adovada, for instance.

Red chili gets beans.
Yardbird chili has beans. I add
4oz mushrooms because it is too acid otherwise.
If it doesn't have beans. Add some on the side.

Beans! Multiple kinds of beans are even better.

Vegetarian versions with beans but no meat are good, too.

It's been beans for as long as I can remember. I was well into adulthood before I learned that some people's version of chili didn't have beans.
