Skyline Chili is another staple from Cincy-town. We wanted to try to make some chili, and decided to try to master the delicious cocoa and cinnamon infused hometown favorite. We paired the great chili with biscuits inspired by the Red Lobster Staple.
Cincinnati Style Chili:
1 onion, minced
1 lb ground beef
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground cumin
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 chipotle pepper in adobe, diced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp salt
2 tsp chili powder
2 bay leaves
3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp cider vinegar
15 oz tomato sauce
1 c beef broth
1/2 c water
Heat large pot with a tbsp or so of olive oil over medium high heat and when hot, add beef, minced onion, garlic, and chili powder. Sprinkle in the red pepper flakes. Cook for about eight minutes or until the meat is browned.

In a separate bowl, combine cocoa, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.

It tasted more like Gold Star, but it was still so good. We had it the next morning on our eggs as a chili, egg, and cheese biscuit! It is one of our favorite things to use leftovers to create fun new things. You need to try it. Great for a cold winter night, or a fun late summer party!
