Cincinnati Chili Recipe

Cincinnati Chili Recipe

INGREDIENTS

For the chili:
  • 2 pounds ground beef (80:20 is good)
  • 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 large onion, minced (about 3 cups)
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, optional
Options for serving:
  • Oyster crackers
  • Finely shredded mild cheddar cheese
  • 1 (15.5-ounce) can small red kidney beans, drained and warmed
  • Minced yellow onion
  • Hot cooked spaghetti

METHOD

1 Cook the tomato paste: Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the tomato paste to the dry pot and cook, constantly scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula, until the tomato smells rich and toasty and you start to see browned (not burned) patches in the bottom of the pot. This should take 1 to 3 minutes.
 2 Combine the ingredients in a pot: Remove the pot from heat and add the ground beef and water. Mix them together into a sludge. It will not look pretty, but press on. There's a method to this madness.
Return to medium-high heat and bring to a simmer, stirring all the while, so the sludge breaks up into a mealy paste. Add all the remaining ingredients except the vinegar and chocolate.
3 Simmer gently, uncovered, for 2 to 3 hours: Stir the chili often. You want the volume to reduce a bit. (To be honest, just one hour of cook time is okay, but for optimal chili-ness, go long.)
4 Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight. Refrigerate in an air-tight covered container. (Note: you can eat the chili immediately if you want to.)
5 De-fat the chili: The next day, lift or scrape off any solidified fat from the top of the chili and discard.
6 Warm and serve: Bring to a rapid simmer, then add the vinegar and chocolate. (The chocolate won’t make it taste sweet—it adds a hint of sophisticated complexity and acts as a foil for all those spices.)
Serve any “way” (see headnotes). The chili will also keep refrigerated for up to a week or frozen for up to a year.

No Bake Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls (Paleo, Vegan, Low Carb) Ingredients 2 cups smooth peanut butter 3/4 cup coconut flour 1/2 cup sticky sweetener of choice  2 cups sugar-free chocolate chips Instructions Line a large plate or tray with parchment paper and set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine all your ingredients, except for chocolate chips, and mix until fully combined. If the batter is too thick and crumbly, add some liquid (water or milk) slowly until a thick, formable batter remains.  Using your hands, form small balls and place on the lined plate or tray. Freeze for 10 minutes. While the peanut butter balls are firming up, melt your sugar-free chocolate chips. Remove the peanut butter protein balls from the freezer and using two forks, dip each ball in the melted chocolate until completely covered. Repeat until all the balls are covered in chocolate. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has firmed up.  Source this recipe  thebigmansworld
