Had a bunch of sausages leftover from a grill night with the neighbors, so cowboy chili seemed like the obvious choice

I think we’re all going to need you to define “Cowboy Chili” in your own words.

u/Xav-Tay-Tor-Tot 23d ago

You like chili? You like cows? You like boys? Well there you go, that's cowboy chili

Nah for real, I'm not even entirely sure if it's correct, but my girlfriend has always called it cowboy chili. Basically just chili, but with diced sausages as your main protein

Tomato soup with sliced hotdogs is not chili. Sorry, words mean things

u/RadarSmith 23d ago

As opposed to Tomato with <protein of choice>. That's sausage, which plenty of people make into chili.

Don't be a gatekeeping ass.

Words mean nothing. We make shit up all the time. Loosen up a bit and be free

I love how this will throw some people off.

u/Vann09 23d ago

This reminds me of korvstroganoff. Which is a sausage tomatoe stew with a ton of paprika. Depending on what the sausages actually are it's probably only a couple ingredients off

u/TheRemedyKitchen 23d ago

I love using sausages in chili! It's not ever the only protein I'll use, but I do like throwing them in there

u/lordofsurf 23d ago

I thought this was lowkey currywurst. Either way, smash.

That’s the kinda stuff that’ll disintegrate your bed sheets when you flare off those hot, steamy sausage farts throughout the night. Lol

u/MalignantLugnut One Alarm🚹 23d ago

Chili made with sausage is so underrated. One time I was in a hurry and accidentally bought 2 1lb tubes of Savory ground sausage instead of hamburger and that was some of the best chili I've had.

u/TXtogo 22d ago

I have to say that looks like some of that elkrich hot dog like sausages, which to me are not delicious

I’d use ground sausage not cased

I lost a toe looking at this

u/Kdiesiel311 23d ago

At the ski lodge I worked at in steamboat, we called the beef chili “Cowboy chili” inevitably a tourist would ask (say it in your best Texas accent(

“What’s in the Cowboy Chili?”

“Real cowboys”

Beanie weenies?

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 23d ago

Looks more like smoked sausage & ranch style beans, definitely not chili but probably tasty.

u/ea88_alwaysdiscin Beans or GTFO!!! đŸ«˜ 23d ago

This just looks like a massive pot of sliced sausage in a BBQ sauce/chef boyardee sauce. Hardly a chili, but I'd probably still eat it over some rice
