9 from Cincinnati and suffers pangs of withdrawal. His favorite is Skyline (personally when I've visited I preferred Goldstar, but that's heresy so don't tell Nick). I've played around with the recipe-it's still not quite perfected, but this is a version we enjoy. The best thing is that it is open to interpretation. Best served over pasta and topped with shredded cheese. Ingredients:
1 quart water |
2 lbs ground beef |
2 teaspoons cinnamon |
2 teaspoons ground cumin |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
3 garlic cloves (diced) |
3 teaspoons chili powder |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
1 teaspoon red pepper |
1 tablespoon salt |
3 teaspoons ground allspice |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
4 large bay leaves |
Directions:
1. Crumble raw (do not brown first) ground beef into the quart of water.
2. Add all of the other ingredients.
3. Simmer uncovered for 1/2 hour.
4. Simmer for another 2 and 1/2 hours covered.
5. Stir occasionally.
