AUTHENTIC CINCINNATI CHILI



Authentic Cincinnati Chili image

This was handed down to me by Mom, a Cincinnati native. Skimming the fat makes this a healthier version than most, and gives it the right consistency. I like mine 4-way, with spaghetti, raw chopped onions, grated mild cheddar, and oyster crackers!

CINCINNATI CHILI



Cincinnati Chili image

Cincinnati Chili is a meaty, rich, and uniquely spiced chili from (you guessed it!) Cincinnati, Ohio. Serve our authentic Cincinnati chili recipe over hot spaghetti with your choice of toppings. Don't forget the cheese and oyster crackers!

Provided by Sara Bir

Categories     Dinner     1-Pot     Freezer-friendly     Make-ahead

Time 3h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the chili:
2 pounds ground beef (80:20 is good)
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
4 cups water
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 large onion, minced (about 3 cups)
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, optional
Options for serving:
Oyster crackers
Finely shredded mild cheddar cheese
1 (15.5-ounce) can small red kidney beans, drained and warmed
Minced yellow onion
Hot cooked spaghetti

Steps:

  • Cook the tomato paste: Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the tomato paste to the dry pot and cook, constantly scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula, until the tomato smells rich and toasty and you start to see browned (not burned) patches in the bottom of the pot. This should take 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Simmer gently, uncovered, for 2 to 3 hours: Stir the chili often. You want the volume to reduce a bit. (To be honest, just one hour of cook time is okay, but for optimal chili-ness, go long.)
  • Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight: Refrigerate in an air-tight covered container. (Note: you can eat the chili immediately if you want to.)

CINCINNATI CHILI CON CARNE



Cincinnati Chili Con Carne image

This recipe for Cincy's classic chili is an adaptation of one found in the International Chili Society's ''Official Chili Cookbook'' by Martina and William Neely. In this version, unsweetened chocolate adds depth, and a splash of vinegar lends a pleasant tang that cuts through the richness. Craig Claiborne and Pierre Franey brought it to The Times in 1981, and we've updated it here to include the traditional "five-way" serving suggestion: over cooked spaghetti sprinkled with grated cheddar cheese, kidney beans and diced white onion.
