The delightful part about chili is that there are innumerable recipes, and everyone makes it a bit differently – some like to overload with spicy peppers, while others make it as hearty as possible with different kinds of potatoes.

Here at George’s Burgers, we’ve taken the spirit of chili to heart – we prepare our chili alongside a few different dishes to make our customer’s mouths explode with flavor with each bite. Check out these 5 ways to use chili in your dishes, and come down to George’s Burgers for a taste test!

Chili Burger

Ah, the burger. Hamburgers have taken on entirely new forms as grilling has become more personal, and different toppings and combinations have set some recipes apart. A chili burger or chili cheeseburger is a simple dish, yet extremely tasty. The tomato base of the chili is different from the regular tomato slices that usually adorn the patty, but still in the same family. Chili on a burger gives your mouth a melting sensation, and it can turn the whole meal into a juicy delight.

Chili Cheese Dog

Hotdogs are the brothers of hamburgers, and they’re almost always served alongside one another at grills. So the hotdogs don’t feel left out, we’ve added chili and cheese to maximize the flavor. We like how the different hotdog toppings complement the chili, too!

Chili Cheese Fries

French fries have historically been a side order, but when you add chili and cheese, the fries become a meal unto themselves. Be careful, though – these chili-loaded fries can fill you up before your main course even gets to the table. Especially if you order our chili cheese fries with pastrami!

Chili Omelet

For some, breakfast is a simple affair and doesn’t have anything fancy about it. For others, breakfast is yet another way to branch out and try something that’ll keep you satisfied all day. Omelets are great ways to add a lot of food to one plate and to try out different combinations, so why not throw chili into the omelet to mix with your grilled onions, bacon, and eggs?

Just Plain Chili

Not every plate needs to have chili added as a way to boost flavor. As a matter of fact, chili by itself is one of the most delicious meals you can have, and you can go nuts researching recipes, cooking times, and styles. Do you enjoy stew-like chili with huge chunks of sweet potatoes, strips of pasilla peppers, and ground beef? Or do you prefer a slow-cooked chili that is marinated with pulled pork and hot peppers for hours and hours?
