Miller disputes that story because that dish supposedly included cumin. Those immigrants, legend has it, brought with them a dish of Moroccan descent. One such story regards the 56 Canary Islanders who were some of the first settlers of modern-day San Antonio. However, Miller does note that historically, Texans did put beans in chili in recipes from the 19th and early 20th centuries.īefore getting to the Chili Queens, Miller also traces some of the roots and fables of the dish. While making a 1910 chili recipe from the Gebhardt Chili Powder Company - which was the first producer of shelf-stable chili powder and which began at the Phoenix Saloon in New Braunfels - Miller says he opted for a recipe that does not have beans, as Texans do not put chili in their beans. "I was so intrigued by that phrase alone that I decided, 'Yeah, I do need to do a video on that.'" "I was doing a book signing, and someone came up to me and said, 'You have to do a video on the Chili Queens of San Antonio,'" Miller says in the video. The video has racked up more than 200,000 views and 19,000 likes.
