No, it's "chile con carne".  Hot peppers with meat.

I thought that is what he was saying. What most people call chili is
actually chili con carne. The "with meat descriptor suggests it has been
added to an otherwise vegetarian dish.

I thought he was saying that chili is basically vegetarian and meat
is an addition.  The opposite is the case.

I don't put beans in chile con carne.
