"Chile carbide" is actually:

1. (a) The common black substance found on the insides of chile smoker lids
(b) Slang term for the burnt chili that sticks to the bottom of the pot.

2.   A generic term for a family of self-sintering compounds such as
serranic carbide, habanerous carbide, or di-piquinated carbide, commonly
used in hardening of cutting tools and dies or as sacrificial anodes in
chileplating baths.

3.  A nonsense term which provides further evidence of Microsoft's attempts
to subvert global communications through their spell-checker defaults; once
the subject of investigation by the Justice Department, until a top policy
memo text was mysteriously switched from "prosecutorial initiative" to
"procrastinate indefinitely."
