A different take on chili especially since it’s spicy and served on top of spaghetti pasta. It’s got quite a few unusual spices in it, such as cinnamon, cocoa, and cumin. We thoroughly enjoy this.

ingredients

  • 2 T vegetable oil
  • 1 lb. ground pork
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 medium yellow onion – chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic – chopped fine
  • 1 T whole cumin seeds
  • 1 T hot chili powder
  • 3 whole bay leaves
  • 2 lbs. kidney beans – dried
  • 2 t cinnamon
  • 2 t Tabasco sauce
  • 1 T cocoa powder
  • 2 T Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 T vinegar
  • 1 28oz. can diced or cooked tomatoes
  • 1 T oregano
  • 2 t allspice
  • 4 C cooked spaghetti pasta

directions

  • 1

    In a large heavy duty pot heat oil to hot and sauté pork, beef, onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder and bay leaves. Drain fat from pot when pork and beef are fully cooked. Add the remaining ingredients except cooked pasta and cook for about 90 minutes or until beans are tender. You may need to add water to keep the chili from getting too thick.
