That figures. I suppose your chili is a lot like our pyttipanna (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyttipanna ) in that respect. In that you'd use pretty much whatever is on hand, that is, I know the flavors etc are completely different.

And, yes, I guessed the cooking process would serve to tenderize, thanks for confirming that!
