Commercial chili in the United States is almost always made with beans. But to true chili afficionados, chili is made strictly with meat - beans are not allowed! More traditional chili is made with shredded beef and pork, but lean ground beef is more convenient - especially when you don’t have the time to let the meat simmer for hours .
