We moved to the Cincinnati area when I was in high school, and while I don’t care for Cincinnati style chili, I can tell you it contains chocolate and cinnamon. Yours sounds better to me.

I tried to print this and nearly used all my printer ink. The ‘print-friendly’ prints EVERYTHING, including ads, buttons, and everything else on this page. 12 PAGES! Maybe you could trim it down to just the recipe. Love your stuff, but I’ll have to go into debt just purchasing printer ink at this rate – LOL!

Chili is serious business in Texas and in Texas chili does NOT have beans. Ever. If you want to have real Texas chili you can try out the recipe used by Lady Bird Johnson, First Lady and Wife to President LBJ.

I am going to tell you what happened when my friend from Oklahoma made chili for a Super Bowl party with her coworkers in Dallas. Of course, she included beans, as any self-respecting cook anywhere else would, and the response was immediate and, ahem, vociferous, to use a highfalutin’ word. She said, years later, that she would never live it down. Those people down there are strangely adamant and surprisingly dogmatic about what goes in their chili. If you ask me, safely in Wisconsin, it sounds more like oddly-spiced spaghetti sauce.

  Hey, it’s in the rules and everything. 😀
  “2. NO FILLERS IN CHILI – Beans, macaroni, rice, hominy, or other similar ingredients are not permitted.”
