Need new chili recipe- something traditional though...

I usually make CL's All-American Chili or Jamie Deen's Chili (both of which I love) but am looking for another chili recipe- a traditional one. 

If you've got a good hearty chili recipe to share, I would appreciate it! 

Re: Need new chili recipe- something traditional though...

  • Cincinnati Chili
    Ingredients:
    1 lb ground beef
    1 1/2 cups diced onion
    2 Tbs chili powder
    1 Tbs. unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 1/2 tsp. apple pie spice
    1/2 tsp. cumin
    1 1/4 cup tomato sauce
    1 1/4 cup beef broth
    7 drops hot sauce
    1 Tbs cider vinegar
    16 oz. thin spaghetti
     
    Preheat broth on medium for 2-3 minutes.  Add beef and 1/2 cup onion, cook 2-3 minutes until meat is crumbled (I have found using a wisk works even though it gets stuck inside) and onions are soft.
    Combine chili powder, cocoa powder, apple pie spice, and cumin, then add to meat.  Cook for 1-2 minutes to blend flavors.
    Stir in tomato sauce, hot sauce, and cider vinegar; cook 8-10 minutes (or until chili thickens).
     
    I personally hate onions so I don't use them. You could always add whatever beans you want to this chili as well--we always traditionally did it with just meat. And we always sprinkle cheddar cheese on it.  It's a chili with a wonderful flavor--hubby said he'd never tasted anything like it, and he LOVES chili so he's tried a lot.

  • H makes this Chili very mild... I can't do hot stuff so If you like spicy add more chili powder to taste. We also don't like beans in our chili but if you do you can add a can or 2.

     

    Chili

     

     

     

     

     

    2 1/2 lbs. Ground Beef

    4 Tablespoons Dried Minced Onion

    Water

    Salt and Pepper to taste

    1- 6 oz. can Tomato Paste

    1 can Campbell's double strength Beef broth and 2 cans water

    3 Tablespoons Ketchup

    1 jar Pace Picante Sauce Mild

    2 Tablespoons Molasses

    1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon

    1 Tablespoon Dark Brown Sugar

    1/2 teaspoon Oregano

    1 teaspoon Onion Powder

    1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

    1 teaspoon Cumin

    1 Tablespoon Chili Powder (if you like things hot add more)

     

    Put beef in heavy stock pot; add onions salt and pepper to taste put in

    about 1 inch of water and cook breaking it up until no longer pink. Turn off heat. Drain

    in colander. Put meat back in pot and add the rest of the ingredients stirring occasionally.

    Once everything is incorporated turn heat back on High until it comes up to boil. Then reduce heat and simmer for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. We have done it in a crockpot once the only thing we had to do was thicken it with cornstarch and cold water because it was very soupy. Enjoy.
