when my dad was little (in the late 30's) they made chili mac, but it was chili (or chili beans) mixed with mac and cheese. anyway, i love a variation of chili: steak slices and fresh mushrooms in place of the ground beef and kidney (or other) beans. ummmmm, ummmm. and a shot of jack daniels** thrown in for good measure! ** may be added to pot or directly into chef.

I saw a story about this chilli over spaghetti on the Food Network and they just call it chilli, but the chilli looked a bit thinner than I think chilli normally looks like. I think Cincinatti or some city in Ohio has tons of these places--maybe it's Columbus or Cleveland [I could never figure out why Ohio has so many cities with the same first letter]--and they are really popular. It said they have two-ways, three-ways, and four-ways.

I make super thick chili, then I eat it with sour cream on white corn tortilla chips. If I want to get crazy, I add cheddar too.

Cincinnati chili has five ways. Chili over spaghetti is yummy - I don't get why it is such an odd idea. Some of the same ingredients that end up in spaghetti sauce can end up in chili. The first time I had the combination was in Honolulu at a chain diner/fast food/plate lunch sort of place. Chili on spaghetti, with optional onions and cheese (yes please!) and toasted slices of garlic bread on the side.

I am a nut for Cincinnati chili aka Skyline chili. My whole family is. We have it delivered to our house. Eeyoreslament here is the Cincinnati chili combo. Bowl of chili 2 way- chili and spaghetti 3 way- chili, spaghetti and cheese 4 way- chili,spaghetti, cheese and onion 5 way-chili,spaghetti, cheese, onion and beans a plain coney- hot dog with chili cheese coney- hot dog, chili and cheese cheese coney with onions- hot dog, chili, cheese and onions The place you eat it is referred to as the chili parlor. Even though the name is Skyline if you say chili parlor everyone knows what you mean. Hope that helps explain it. Here's the link to Skyline Chili that can tell you all about it. There is also an order page there for the Cincinnati Chili fans or the adventurous chili fans that want to try it. http://www.skylinechili.com/

Well,since I am a vegetarian,I'm sure my chili recipe won't be too popular,but here it is. This is my quickie version. 1 can of rotel 1 can of red kidney beans (drained and washed) 1 can of Bush's chili beans half a packet of McCormick chili seasoning throw it in a pot,and simmer, serve with chopped onions, shredded cheddar and crackers,jalapenos optional

Hippyt, I'm not vegetarian but that sounds good. I waited to long to edit by post so I will just add it here. If you live close to a Kroger grocery store they also sell skyline chili. If you go to the skyline web page and click on the buy chili link there will be some additional links at the bottom of the page. One of those links is for Graeters Ice Cream. If they have ice cream in heaven it will be Graeters. It is wonderful!

OH MY WORD Biloxi!! I just visited that site. We need a Skyline here in Vancouver. Is there really that much cheese on top? If there is, I'm going to have to take a trip down there, crash on your couch, and spend some time at Skyline. I guess it wasn't smart of me to visit the site while I'm hungry.

Eeyoreslament, sorry for the delay in responding. But, yup there is that much cheese on top and it is as good as it looks. I forgot to add that you top the whole thing off with oyster crackers. You are welcome on my couch anytime. Sadly my couch is now in Mississippi so I am in the same boat as you. But I do have some family still scattered around Cinti/Northern Ky area. I'm sure we could borrow a couch or two from them LOL.

LOL. I've never understood that "serve over spaghetti" thing with chili. I always do spicy chili with cheddar cheese and onions on top. And crush up some unsalted saltines in the bottom of the bowl first. I think I saw Skyline Chili on Food Network once. I remember the "three-way". Oh, yeah, that was definitely what I saw on Food Network! (I just went and took a look at Skyline's Web site.) I remember thinking that was a heck of a lot of food, and that the spaghetti part was kinda weird. And that I like cheese on my chili but that that was a LOTTA cheese! Guess ya don't wanna go there if you are on a diet! <wink>

That makes a lot of chili and it tends to be thick, therefore, we call it 1 ton chili.

I live in Northern Ky and have grown to really love the chili here. Skyline chili, Goldstar chili, Dixie chili are other names of speciality restaurants. I have cousins who live in the Appleton/Menasha area of Wisconsin. She was telling me about their annual Chili Dump. Everyone brings their pot of chili, and they dump into one enormous pot.
