Notes
The paper claims a lineage from Lady Bird Johnson and is allegedly verifiable on the LBJ online library (lbjlib.utexas.edu > research > reference > quick facts > recipes).
Chili meat is defined for us here as "coursley gorund round steak or a well-rimmed chuck".
According to the article, Lady Bird came up with this after LBJ had his first heart attack. Surprisingly he continued to live through this much sodium. Ole!
