With the chill back in the air, we thought it would be a good time to ask where you get that steaming bowl of spicy goodness.

Beans or just meat? Chicken or beef? Spicy or mild? How do you like your chili? And where do you go when you're looking for a good bowl of it? We're asking Patch readers: Where's your favorite place for chili in South County or Arnold?
