Never had the Carroll Shelby brand, but I can bet a dollar that Cincy Chili is very different. It’s an acquired taste and not like a traditional beef, bean, tomato chilies most are used to. First it usually has cinnamon and in some versions chocolate. It’s more like a chili sauce after cooking down, the meat is chopped really fine and the chili is put on Spaghetti or small hot dogs, topped with cheese and onions. There are beans available for those that want them on the spaghetti but they are not in the cooked chili.
I’ll try it, I ran into chili on spaghetti in Kansas City and after I got over my Texas shock I thought it was pretty good.
I think my mistake with making chili on spaghetti was just pouring chili on it rather than looking for a chili sauce that fits the dish.
For regular chili give Carroll Shelby’s a shot, I used to recommend it to my California friends as an excellent mix that can impress people.
