Have you ever put chili in mashed potatoes and bake it in the oven? Yum.

I could never get a satisfactory bottom layer with just cornbread. The chili would soak through in the baking process.

I go with shepherd's pie and sub in chili for the meat.

lol....SR is a brilliant poster.

Now that I think about it, pies of any kind without a bottom crust really annoy me.

It's like, **** you, you aren't even trying to be a pie.

I love me some Sheppard's cobbler.

Pie without a crust is slop.

Anybody that doesn't enjoy a chili cheeseburger might as well be turned in to the proper authorities and considered a traitor.

I must admit I've never had one. They just aren't offered where I'm from. If I get the chance guidance in ordering a proper and eating one would be appreciated.

So do you pick it up and eat it like a real burger or use a fork?

It starts as a real burger and quickly devolves into an ordeal. Not recommended as a first date because you are either going to get that shit all over yourself or look like a dandy cutting it up with a fork. Best done alone and out of sight.

Give me the chili on the side.

You have to go into this with the thought that you will need to get down and dirty
Use of a bib is not frowned upon.

Think Mushroom and swiss burger a real slopper. Or the Mc Ds drive through late night and the funny dude serves you a squirt burger. First bit just squirts ketchup and turd everywhere. Now take times 10 thats a Chilli Cheeseburger.

I'm not saying if it's on the menu then I am getting it every time. But if you can't appreciate a hamburger topped with chili, something is wrong. Eat it like a regular burger then use a fork/spoon to eat whatever chili fell out. As a sub-topic, how does everybody feel about a hamburger with an egg on it?

I really thought it added nothing. With all the flavors in a burger the incredible edible egg kinda gets over shadowed.
