Cincinnati Chili Instructions

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, saute onion, round beef, garlic, and chili powder until ground beef is slightly cooked, but not completely browned. Note that if you cook the ground beef too long your chili will not have to smooth texture of a classic Cincinnai chili.

Add allspice, cinnamon, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, unsweetened cocoa or chocolate, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, cider vinegar, and water. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours. Remove from heat.
