Others say it looks like diarrhea.

That's one hell of a selling point.

I'll pass, I use black beans, kidney beans and garbanzo beans, marinara sauce, ground beef, pork and deer and assorted spices.

Not runny, very thick, spicy sauce.

Because the “chili” part is literally just a gravy or roux made out of peppers and beef broth.

No tomatoes.
No beans.
No corn.
No pasta.
No cheese.

Just a stew base made from pureed chili’s.

That’s what I said when I read how it’s made: It’s spaghetti sauce, not chili.

That’s what it sounds like to me, as well. Although the spices sound like moussaka.

I make a chilies/cumin/tomato/beef chili and have added dark chocolate as well as coffee, at times. It deepens the flavor.

Also offer sharp cheddar as a topping.

And, as a Yankee, I add beans. Once had a Mexican woman as a dinner guest and she pronounced it the “best frijoles” she’d ever had. She went into detail about mole culture in Mexican cuisine. Very individualized and competitive.

...a chili suitable for convalescing hospital patients.

LOL! Cracked me up. That is every Lutheran church chili feed in Wisconsin!!

I learned to bogart the hot sauce and skip the elbow macaroni usually offered as a topping.

I ate at a Cinci themed restaurant in NC and ordered the chili not knowing anything about it.

My first thought when it was brought to the table was, WTF is this?

“I can deal with all of it except the hint of sweet like cinnamon or maybe it’s the clove.”

I’ve eaten baked spaghetti in some Greek places that had a hint of that. I didn’t mind it.

That looks like a killer baked bean recipe at your link. The only thing different I would do is instead of putting it into the oven it would go into the smoker.

I’m from Indy but lived in Cinci for awhile. This chili is definitely different, but it grows on you the more you eat it. At first I didn’t like it. I do like it now with lots of goodies on it.

That sounds good in tacos. Here is my Taco Blasphemy recipe.

Brown 1lb. ground beef, drain grease.
Add one pack taco mix
1 can pinto chili beans
1 can tomato soup
1/2 cup rice (I like Jasmine because it cooks in 15 min)
12 oz water—I guess. I do it by sight until the mix is just liquid enough to look like the rice will have enough water)

Mom used to make this with chili powder instead of taco mix.

serve in taco shells with grated cheese. Leftovers are good with eggs and grits the next day.

My grandma grew up in London where she learned to make chilli sauce. The spices in this chili makes me think it’s more of an English style chilli. Not Texas style at all.

Oops, Bring to bubbly then simmer until rice is done. Need to scrape the bottom of the pot after about 5 min. because it wants to stick due to being thick.
