First time at The Pub at the Aria hotel in Vegas. There wasn’t a huge menu but the “Brisket chili” stood out. I think it was like $12 (it is Vegas) so I thought something bigger than a cup. The skillet was nice and hot and big but not too deep. The cheese was baked on top and came with some cheddar jalapeño biscuits. There were nice chunks of meat and this had a really deep flavor. I’d say it was more on that smoky side than most and it had a nice kick to it. Well it was hot temperature wise too but enough zip to get your nose on the verge of running. I could have done with about half the cheese and a little side of sour cream might have been good. The was very hearty do you could get away with another app and be plenty full. Of course I had a chicken sandwich and a few beers so I was plenty full after. I would definitely recommend the next time you are at the Aria.
