Cincinnati Chili Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Brown ground beef in large skillet on medium-high heat until beef is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain fat.
• Stir tomato sauce, chili seasoning, and cinnamon into the skillet. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and onion.

Steps:

• Place the ground beef in a large pan, cover with about 1 quart of cold water, and bring to a boil, stirring and breaking up the beef with a fork to a fine texture. Slowly boil until the meat is thoroughly cooked, about 30 minutes, then remove from heat and refrigerate in the pan overnight.
• The next day, skim the solid fat from the top of the pan, and discard the fat. Place the beef mixture over medium heat, and stir in the onions, tomato sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, chocolate, chili powder, salt, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, cloves, allspice berries, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 hours. Add water if necessary to prevent the chili from burning.

Steps:

• For the chili: In a stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the tomato sauce, tomato paste, onions, chili powder, cocoa powder, sugar, kosher salt, cinnamon, cumin, garlic salt, allspice, pepper, cayenne, cloves, bay leaves, beef (do not brown first) and 2 cups water. Mix until combined. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat for approximately 2 hours. Stir in the vinegar and simmer for another 30 minutes.
• To serve: Serve on a bed of spaghetti and top with the beans, onions and a mound of cheese (or any preferred combination). Add hot sauce, if desired, and eat with oyster crackers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spread cream cheese evenly in the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish; top with chili. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over chili layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 15 minutes.
