My family is from Ohio, and I LOVE Cincinnati Chili. Being in Texas, you just can't find it anywhere! I found this recipe online and it is fantastic. Very close to what I remember.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 lbs ground beef or 2 lbs ground turkey

1/4 cup chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1 bay leaf

0.5 (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate square

2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans beef broth

1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce

2 tablespoons cider vinegar

1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

2 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans (drained) (optional)

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in crock pot (except cheddar cheese). Cook on high all day stiring occasionally to break up the ground beef.
2. Remove the bay leaf. Serve over top of hot drained spaghetti or on a hot dog. Top with cheese.
