Home style Chili and Cornbread Muffins

This hearty home style chili is perfect for game day or on a chilly fall afternoon. It’s even better on a blustery winter afternoon. If you’re like my hubby you enjoy a bowl of chili with yummy cornbread muffins or if you’re like me buttered saltine crackers. But don’t forget the cheese to mound on top of your bowl of chili. All this talk about chili, buttered crackers and cornbread muffins is making me hungry!!

Styles of Chili

There has to be literally hundreds of recipes for chili. Every family seems to have their own version of chili and every region has a version that they call their own. Some have lots of beans, others only one kind. Some chili has noodles added to the pot of chili, others serve the chili over the noodles, while others say never to noodles altogether. Even the meat can vary. Then there is white chili, vegetarian chili and chili con carne. Styles of chili vary as much as the cooks who prepare them.
