Lauren's Cincinnati Chili image

I have searched far and wide for a recipe that compares to Goldstar or Skyline chili, to no avail. Finally, I took a number of decent recipes and blended them together with the help of a former Goldstar Chili employee. It's still not the same, but it feeds my cravings. The most important things about the chili is how you prepare the beef and the cinnamon and chocolate. I recommend refrigerating the chili overnight. It always tastes better the next day.

I've tried this recipe a few times and I'm always disappointed. The chili is always too bland and the texture is off.

This chili is amazing! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. I usually serve it over spaghetti, but I've also tried it over rice and it's just as good.

I'm not a huge fan of Cincinnati chili, but this recipe is pretty good. It's not too spicy and it has a nice flavor.

This is the best Cincinnati chili recipe I've ever tried! It's so flavorful and delicious. I used ground beef, but I think next time I'll try it with ground turkey. I also added a little bit of cayenne pepper to give it a little bit of a kick. My fam
