This combination of flavors is hard to describe and it&#8217;s nothing like &#8220;regular chili&#8221; &#8211; it&#8217;s sweeter and the texture is smooth.

Use your hand to vigorously stir, making sure to break up the meat and mix until it&#8217;s a smooth and uniform mixture (granted this part is a bit gross&#8230;I use a food-safe disposable glove). The mixture will be very thick, but don&#8217;t add any extra water.<\/p>\n<p>Finely chop the onion and and add it plus all other ingredients to the meat\/water mixture. Bring to boil, cover and reduce to a hard simmer. Mix well every 15 minutes. Cook for 1 hour 40 minutes, remove cover and cook the last 20 minutes with no lid &#8211; you have 2 hours of total cooking time.<\/p>\n<p>Serve over spaghetti noodles and top with shredded mild cheddar and dice onions. Trust me, this recipe is worth the effort!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are two kinds of people in this world &#8211; Gold Star Chili people and Skyline Chili people.
