Chili Craving

I think it's possible that no one will no what I'm talking about, or that those who do will gag, but:

I am craving Skyline chili like you would not believe. Does anyone have a recipe for good Cincinnati chili?!?!?

    this is a recipe from a sweet lady in my church - it's EXCELLENT.

    3 T vegetable oil
    1 medium onion, diced
    3 lb ground beef
    1 T garlic, minced
    1/2 t crushed red pepper
    1/2 t cinnamon
    1/4 t allspice
    1/2 t cumin
    1 T chili powder
    2 t black pepper
    2 t salt
    1 c tomato sauce
    5 c tomato juice
    1 T worcestershire sauce
    1/2 t tabasco

    Brown meat in 2 T of oil and drain off fat. Set aside. Saute onion in 1 T oil until soft. Add to beef. Add garlic, red pepper, cinnamon, allspice, cumin, chili powder, pepper, salt, tomato sauce, tomato juice, worcestershire sauce, and tabasco. Simmer 3-4 hours. Let sit overnight and then freeze if desired.

    enjoy :)

  4. Katie's recipe looks good. Otherwise, I don't know anything about Cincinnati chili, but my future daughter-in-law is from there, so I'll ask her!
