Chocolate? Cinnamon? Cloves? Allspice? Oh yes, this chili has some amazing ingredients! It really does remind me of the chili served in Ohio at Skyline Chili. We usually eat the traditional Cincinnati style (over spaghetti noodles with cheese on top) but leftovers are fun because we make chili dogs the following night, and frito pie's after that!
Crockpot Cincinnati Chili
- • 2 lbs ground beef
- • 1 can chili beans (I buy Bush's chili beans, but rinse the sauce off in colander)
- • 3 cups water
- • 2 medium onion, finely grated ( I use 3-4 Tbs chopped, dried minced onion)
- • 2 8-oz cans tomato sauce
- • 5 whole allspice
- • ½ teaspoon pepper
- • ½ teaspoon ground cumin seed
- • 4 cloves garlic (I use bottle minced garlic…bottle gives equivalent of a clove)
- • 4 Tablespoons chili powder
- • 2 Tablespoons vinegar
- • 1 large bay leaf
- • 5 whole cloves
- • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- • ½ ounce bittersweet chocolate
- • 1 ½ teaspoon salt
- • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Brown ground beef. I pour in colander and rinse meat to prevent greasiness in chili. While browning the beef, put remaining ingredients in crockpot. After rinsing beef, add it to the crockpot and stir until all ingredients are mixed. Cook on low all day. (It tastes much better the longer it cooks!). Serve over spaghetti noodles with shredded cheese on top. OR, serve over frito’s with cheese for a Frito Pie.
