They go on top when served just like the onion. I don't mean to sound like a purist on this because I'm not. LOL I actually top mine with finely shredded cheddar and onions, but I leave off the beans and add diced tomatoes, sliced olives, and sour cream. Then splash with a few shakes of Frank's Red Hot. :09 Good stuff. Oh, and the beans don’t go in the chili, either. They go on top when served just like the onion.

The absolute best way to make sure the meat is fine enough and not in clumps is to cook the raw meat in tomato juice. It's guaranteed to be the correct consistency if you do that. If you actually brown it, it will not be right. So I leave out the oil. I also don't put onion in the sauce but on top of the finished product.
