Comments: Called a "bowl of red" deep in the heart of Texas, this chili is usually served with the beans on the side. For those who like their chili with a bit more fire, use a hotter salsa or even a few dashes of hot pepper sauce. This dish is even better when it's prepared a day ahead, chilled and brought back to a simmer before serving.
