Worst 'Chili' I've ever had.
Aquired taste? Many local treats are that way......and you better like cheese here!

Reminds me of the "clam" chowder my wife and I got at a restaurant in Cheyenne once. They said it was the specialty of the house and people came from miles around to get it. They were right about one thing, you could not use "clams" to describe it, only clam because that was the count in each of our bowls. We had to explain to them that my wife was raised on the water in R.I. and knew what real N.E. clam chowder was supposed to be and that wasn't it. Now living here in Texas I can see that your spaghetti up there in no way resembles chili. LOL!

Agreed- Skyline and Gold Star are abominations. I'm a purist when it comes to food- give me spaghetti with marinara. Keep the frickin' chilli separate.
Local stuff gets overblown. Wife is from Toledo, and for the life of me I don't get all warm and fuzzy about the "World Famous" Tony Packo's hot dog- cheese optional. It's OK bar food, but I wouldn't make a special trip to have one. It's like the Original Arthur Bryant's rib joint in KC- it was a dive when we visited 20 years ago. (though the food was better than Tony's) But like Packo's, the celebrity autographs on the wall are impressive.

How anyone can eat Cincinnati chili is beyond me, it tastes like someone poured a blended pumpkin pie into chili. So weird.
Oh my wife, the scratch cook, saw the picture and thought it was gross! I hope it isn't Cincinnati's finest dish I spent time in cinci during the 1970s visiting a friend in college, later his wedding had some pretty good food......but that was eons ago.
I'll take Chicago and of course good ol' NE OHIO.
......and Pittsburgh not bad!

#1...I LOVE seafood, but I WILL NOT order it inland. If you have ever eaten good seafood on the coast, you'll understand.
#2...Cincinnati chili (IMHO) SUCKS! Family members LOVE it, but I was very disappointed. I like good, spicy chili & that means with NO BEANS!!! For hotdogs, I "tweeked" a Mr Food coney sauce recipe that has become a favorite among friends.

Totally agree Mike. We went to the docks in Maine for fresh lobster dinners when we visited wife's Mass. sister 2-3 years ago. Buy fresh shrimp off the boats in Corpus on occasion too. Order fresh blackened redfish or baked flounder when I find it just came in here occasionally with a local restaurant. Just iced down and not frozen.
EDIT: Our local grocer gets in fresh fish too. I make a couple of really great bourbon or rum sauces with either blackberry, black cherry or apricot preserves as the mixer. Bake until the fish is flaky done and yummy. Now I can eat that on my diet.

Spaghetti, chili, cheese, onions and beans.Oh the wife just made another version of chili mac the other day only without spaghetti, she used a smaller spoon size macaroni, not bad at all.
AND she used the square, deep copper pot I bought her....."AS SEEN ON TV", cooks great easy to handle but there are a few quirks about cooking with it, good thing is it will go on stove or in the oven.

ALSO I went back over the last 5-6 pages here, always some interesting ideas......plus that Chicago style beef sandwich has to be coming soon!

My wife makes her Chili with a special secret ingredient.....which I ain't disclosing. But she will be entering it into My Kiwanis Club's Chili Cookoff on Saturday. Maybe she can win!!!
-
Interesting. My wife never reads this board but guess what's in the crock pot? Chili!. I used the leanest hamburger meat I could find and filled it full of chopped up green & red Bell peppers, onion, pinto beans, diced tomatoes & sauce and appropriate spices. Now I just have to limit my intake the next few days.

I only put onions and stewed tomatoes in it, and of course the spices.
Add the Pinto beans the last couple hours or so. I like pinto beans in my chili. Helps me out the next morning, if you know what I mean.

Not without her permission.
And for the person that suggested the Carolina Reaper....uhh...sorry...it is a very mild chili honestly. Hers is actually very bland unless she uses her secret ingredient. But that ingredient isn't necessarily a "spicy" addition.

II worked with a guy from Barberton, a retired cop who was also of Serbian background. He passed away a few years ago. He said they have some good fried chicken down there also.

Yes, Barberton is famous for its fried Chicken...but it is not to everyone's taste. The not so secret secret is that they fry it in lard. And some just don't like that. My wife will not eat it.
But you have White House Chicken, Hopocan Gardens, Belgrade Gardens, The Village Inn. ( a couple did close down: Terrace Gardens

KFC was fried in lard back in the day (when it was still good).
