"The Dish": Exploring Dixon's Famous Chili

[@KayBirdsKitchen]

Such a staple in Kansas City! Amazing food, excellent service, and fantastic history. Everyone should try this at least once before they die.

I love Dixon's. Ate there last weekend!

[@Jacob-nu4nd]

As a Kansas City Inn, I hate to talk bad but it’s not traditional chili. I don’t quite understand the hype.

[@VoxLesPaul]

Hi, Kansas Citian. Good, don't go; that means more open tables for the rest of us that like it.

[@Jacob-nu4nd]

@ you can have the plate of ground beef

[@Zebraalfadelta]

@@VoxLesPaul It's dirt meat, very, very dry and not seasoned . It doesn't matter how you order it, the meat is dry!!!!I i try to go back every ten years and it always disappoints. I'll try it again in 4 years.

[@Zebraalfadelta]

@@VoxLesPaul What are talking about? It is always empty!

[@VoxLesPaul]

​@@Zebraalfadelta If Dixons Chili is "always empty", how have they stayed in business for 105 years? What about all the people we saw on the video?

"Hey do you like Chili?" "Yeah Mr Dixon, I could really go for a bowl of chili right now." "Great, here's a spoonful of taco meat, some raw onion, some Beef broth and some grease, and if you put it all together, you have something like chili." "I DONT KNOW WHY I LIKE THE THINGS THAT I LIKE, BUT I JUST WANT THE THINGS THAT I LIKE!"

I've been there a couple times. Just didn't ring with me as something that should be called "chili". I know people who love it though, but to each his own!

[@xxPlaceboxx]

Original chili.

In this video he talks about DIXONS CHILI,in KANSAS CITY,in MISSOURI, and I remember years ago when I was stationed in Germany and during the lunch the mess sergeant opened up the other mess hall and I asked another cook to make some Beef Chili,and here name was Laurie,and she couldn't do it and I told her that I learned how to make it in high school, because the HAWAIIAN PEOPLE just love Chili,no matter, whether it be beef,pork, chicken, or whatever, with rice and salad, it's no big deal and now I don't buy canned chili, I make it, better and cheaper, but this is a very funny video, and I am not into convience foods, as many people are just plain lazy, takes time, but time is money.

[@4biz]

wow.now i gotta go here

[@BeardsleyMark]

It has beans, Chili powder and beef? No tomato? Probably closer to the original chilis than most.

[@timothyhays1817]

Hope they cinnamon rolls to go with it!

[@lassiejr2115]

Yeah thats not chilli thats Taco Meat .

[@VoxLesPaul]

There are beans, too. And, the toppings. Some call it "Cincinnati-style" chili. And, yes, it's different than Wendy's chili.

[@BillyHenry-fk1qg]

I'll make it better at home and way better everything cost extra there and they have no grease in it

[@lukethegambino1774]

okay billy henry

[@carolaguilera6911]

Then don’t go . Good for you

[@SmokeyTreats]

True, but it won't taste like Dixon's. And they serve bowls of grease there too so you can add to your own taste. I love it, it's unique.

[@NeutronDance]

I didn't see one chili in this whole video. Just ground beef.

No wonder everyone in kansas city is 700 lbs.
