Some chili can have a reaction causing the ride home to be much quicker.

A retirement road trip to everyone of the places on that show would be sweet.  Maybe when I make my second million.   Wink

The Shed is only about an hour or so down the road.

I don't know, but have made a few 4 to 5 hundred mile round trips  for a hamburger, or some good BBQ.

Stanley... I have been told that I make very good chili. 

It's not stOOpid ass hot or anything.  Just good.

Come to Indiana and I'll cook you a pot, and give you a place to take a nap.

Stanley, it depends on how hungry you are.

It ya set around jawin about it, ya won't have time to get too far, so shut up, throw a leg over that bike and head out.....    Then report in as to how wunnerful the chili was.     Last good chili I had was in Albuquerque, many moons ago, and that was good GREEN chili.

Then take the long way back as you should have a built up supply of extra gas on board. angel coolsmiley tickedoff 2funny cooldude

An accountant buys a Harley and all the related gear.
 He wants to be a real Biker so he goes to Sturgis. He arrives hot and tired and goes into this bar and orders a beer. Sitting next to him is an old Biker. Grizzeled from miles in the hot sun and cold rain. The miles are written in the creases of his face like a book. Before him sits a bowl of delicious looking chili. The biker stares straight ahead. Our accountant friend finishes his beer and orders another.
He works up the nerve to speak to the Biker.
"That looks like good chili"
"It is"
"Are you going to eat it"?
"Nope"
"I'll buy you a beer if I can have it"
"OK"
 He attacks the chili like a man who hasnt eaten in 400 miles. As he gets to the bottom of the bowl, he notices a tail, long and thin. Its a mouse. He barfs the chili back into the bowl.
The Biker turns to him and says,

" Thats about as far as I got too".

Well, for great  home-made chili I don't have to ride anywhere.
But, since you mentioned diners,  I'll just point out that if you're going to make that kind of ride for chili you may as well stop in the Texas Chili Parlor, in Austin (200 miles from my door).

I'm not a chili purist, I like beans in mine, I order  chili with black beans and Elgin sausage at TCP.

Its not chili without beans. That stuff they call 'white chili' is really should not be concidered chili.

Original chili  is described as a meat and pepper stew.  Putting beans in chili is as sacrilegious as putting  okra in gumbo, in some corners.  

I had to Google "white chili", and I agree with you.  Chicken soup is not chili.  White beans deserve a ham bone.

How Far?

Calc:
(((Total Travel Budget - cost of Chilli) /2) /$ per gallon gas) x anticipated mpg.  I wouldn't go any further than that...  This should get you there and back, a full belly, indigestion & "additional gas"   uglystupid2

OR ride til you get hungry and stop for Chilli.   cooldude

All this from a guy that's been known to do 500+ miles for a lug of Michigan Cherries.  coolsmiley

My wife started a big pot of chili this morning.  Planning ahead for Sunday lunch.  Cooked all day today.  Then it will cool off, then spend the night in refrigerator, then tomorrow morning back on the slow cooker while he head off to church.

Lunch should be wonderful.
