Dwight, I expect it is the garnish(Corona) that isn't mixing too well with the chili. See below. However, you haven't said what is in the chili.

BTW, I'm not an expert on anything but procrastination. I'm just a curious tinkerer who often gives up on improving stuff. Some of my concoctions are gawdawful nasty and inedible. That's why I call my failures just another experiment.

I once had a pinto bean recipe published by Bro Lusk. It's good, real good, and pinto bean recipes aren't often found in cook books. Once the water cooks down, I add a can of of the King of Beers instead of more water. I don't use Lite Beer because sissy beer is only good for souring corn when making hog bait. Anyway, I started wondering how good it would be if I eliminated the water and just used beer. When the beans were done, Charlene and I each ate a bowl. We agreed that those were the best beans I had ever cooked. About an hour later the rumbly in the tumbly(Winnie the Pooh) started. It was so bad that Charlene skipped our Grandsons basketball playoff game. I went but sat way up in the bleachers and told everyone to stay away due to a virus that I had caught. Never again will I mix a bunch of beer with pinto beans.

Theo, would you please take that damn avatar off.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
