The method for making this chili is to boil the beef. Boiling the ground beef yields a smooth texture, perfect for chili dogs.”
The first time I made this recipe, I doubled it, but everyone loved it so much that I did not have any extra to freeze, which was partly my goal. So I doubled it again.
I also have added to this recipe all the ingredients needed to turn it into Chili Dog Cincinnati Chili.
8 cups water
4 lb ground beef
4 medium onions, diced
2 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce
8 garlic cloves, minced
6 tablespoons chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
4 bay leaves
To make Chili Dog Cincinnati Chili, add the following:
4 teaspoons cocoa
2 teaspoons cinnamon
- Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add beef and boil for 30 minutes stirring occasionally. Drain beef.
- Add remaining ingredients to beef and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Serve over hot dogs with yellow mustard and onions, or as 5-Way Chili.
