For my take on this southern staple, I found these two versions and both border on the sweetish side without going overboard. They hold their own to a rich and thick stew of chili con carne and the meeting of both dishes results in a well balanced meal in terms of flavor and texture. I'm also posting my version of chili con carne which is synthesized from a recipe featured on Ina Garten's show, Barefoot Contessa and from my favorite cookbook of main dishes, Main Dishes from Good Housekeeping. It is the perfect way to fend off the cold weather during the winter season.
