    just a little funny story i have to share.
    i live in texas and as a texan, wolf is the only brand of chili i buy and eat. i was hungry for some chili and crackers. so i asked my mom "do we have anymore chili?" she said yes, to which you showed me a can of hormel. then i told her "so we don't have any chili?"

    Hormel does have more meat and beans. Wolf is more sauce and spicier.(more cumin?) As he said i would mix both together. I would prefer the milder Hormel alone over the Wolf. Although for the price the Wal Mart Great Value is pretty good.

    I've always bought hormel no bean chili for my great aunt's secret chili spaghetti recipe but I switched it up with wolf this time and am sold. It looked like ass when I opened the can but the flavor is way better. It reminds me of the awesome slop they put on tommy burgers. I'll give you a hint on the top-secret recipe...it's spaghetti, chili, and whatever else ya put on a hotdog or burger.

    Born and lived in Texas. Wolf Brand Chilli is the official Chilli of Texas, called Texas Red. In my humble opinion, Hormel Chilli tastes like dog food. I ONLY eat Wolf Brand.

  • @muttbob5603
    @muttbob5603 2 года назад +7

    The Wolf Brand taste is way better, and if you get the Homestyle Wolf Brand, it's the best. The reason I'm here is because I just tried the Homestyle Hormel, and it's nasty. Hormel was my go to for years, until I found Wolf Brand. The Homestyle Hormel is sweet, with kidney beans, too sweet, and the flavor is just off. I like kidney beans in my chili, and add a can along with chili beans, and pinto beans, when I make chili, so that's not the issue. I had to add crackers and cheese just to get it down.
    It would be nice to see a video comparing the two Homestyle versions.

      Try wolfs homestyle me and my honey are addicted to it. In fact. I'm on here looking to see if they have crack in it seriously. I add cheese and hot sauce and that's it. With cracker. I've been eating it too much though. It has 500 calories per can then add the cheese and a soda and that's too many calories for me. I've gained a few pounds. I'm trying to stop eating it but it's so good. So I'm trying to find a substitution recipe with less calories homemade probably. Damn. Or maybe I can eat it and then do a hour or longer work out.

  • @Kevlarel84
    @Kevlarel84 2 года назад +6

    These are my two favorite canned chilis. Wolf Brand Chili is my all time favorite. I Love their spicy variety with beans or the regular with beans. The Wolf Angus Beef chili with beans is probably the best canned chili I've ever had. I love the flavor of Wolf. The thing I've found with Wolf Brand chili is that it's not always consistent from batch to batch. The flavor doesn't change but the amount of meat and beans in the can does. I've found that about 25% of the time you will get a can that has mostly sauce and skimps on the meat and beans. I think you had a bad can that you used for this comparison. At least half the time I get big chunks of beef in my Wolf chili. 25% of the time it will have lots of beans with small chunks of meat and then 25% of the time mostly sauce. I still buy it because it always tastes good and I'll just use more crackers or crumpled tortilla or corn chips in my bowl when I get a saucy can. I wish it was more consistent. The Hormel is my "go to" because it's available everywhere and it's consistently good. They don't skimp on the meat or the beans. I prefer their Hot and Spicy variety with beans but the regular with beans is good too. I just add some chili powder and a dash of hot sauce to taste. It doesn't take much effort to make a great bowl of chili from it.

    I love Wolf’s chili. It’s changed my life!!! I used to be vegetarian due to my family, but I decided to become an explorer and have come to love meat. I never though canned chili could give me a new perspective on life. Luckily my husband is very supportive of my love for Wolfs chili. We love making chili cheese tots and nachos with it.

Pick your own protein from beef, turkey, deer, etc...and help me get my brand started! I want to provide 'frozen fresh paks' of my chili and homemade soups, where all you do is place the pouch in boiling water to heat a hearty meal for the whole family! I want to start a business but need people like you to try and approve of it so I can attempt to market my foods. I'm a chef at heart, but just a lowly airport employee for now.

    If they make it spicy less people will buy it. You can always add spice but you can't take it out.

      @@foodfights6904 yeah anything I cook I always add seasoning after I taste so I don't add to much. Trick is taste taste taste. If you added to much then you have to make a half batch with no seasoning then marry them.

    Hormel doesn't taste as good as Wolf's IMO

    Wolf chili is hot, and I don't mean hot temperature-wise, I mean spicy hot

    Hormel tamales in a can has an awful similar taste to the wolf brand chili cuz I'm eating the wolf brand chili and I'm like there's something here familiar and all of the sudden ding I was like this is like tamales in a can flavor anyhow that's my two cents

      I would love to do the Hormel tamales, but what would I compare them to?
