My brother and I used to have a running argumebnt abouty chili. He
said his chili was not finished until it took a ride through the
freezer. He used to make large batches and freeze it before he'd eat
any.

I also used to make large batches of chili, and while I'd freeze most
I'd always have a bowl of what I called "neuveau chili", which was
after the cook finished but before it was frozen. And I discovered
from doibng this that the "neuveau chili" had a sharper hotter flavor,
which a ride through the freezer mellowed out.

So yes there are differences. But to each their own, yano?
