Sweet Cincy Chili

Chili when it’s chilly – my favorite combination!

I have had this recipe for a while, made a few changes and still love it.  It hails from Cincinnati and is a sweeter version of what most people think of a regular Chili recipe.  Mike calls it “Sloppy Joe Chili” because it does resemble those flavors a bit.  He prefers a more spicy chili, but still cleans his plate every time I fix this one! 

I usually serve it over spaghetti or rotini for a “chili mac” feel, but it is also good served alone, over rice or baked potatoes.

Enjoy!

Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 2 hours (preferred), however, you don't have to simmer for that long, but the flavors will meld together better.
