Loved it! A little thin, but after you add the pasta it's all good. I'll make it again.

Amazing, just don't put as much cloves, maybe a teaspoon less, or maybe just a half teaspoon because it's a powerful flavor.. I also put grated cheddar instead of Parmesan cheese. But so yummy.

Sorry! But this recipe did not pass the taste test. I thought it was absolutely horrible and can't believe it is still posted.

This is outstanding! I was a little hesitant because I haven't cooked with this combination of spices, but there was no need. Fantastic. Savory and sweet and delicious. My husband loved it and said he could eat this weekly. It's actually pretty versatile, too. I'm going to make a big batch of the chili part, freeze it, and use it as a base for shepherd's pie, pot pies, and chili stuffed potatoes. The only thing I changed was to reduce the cloves by half, and next time I'll take the advice on here and reduce it even more.

I go with Guy on many, many of his recipes. The Guy version of a Cinci chile was a great effort and worked with one exception. Give up the clove. Overbearing and essentially killed the dish.

The taste was great, but it came out runny. I probably should have added some flour, but I kept holding out hoping it would thicken on its own. Next time I'll know what to do. I didn't use any clove, instead I added some cayenne pepper (we love the heat!. I probably will pull back a little on the cinnamon to maybe 2 tsp instead of 2 1/2 tsp. Great meal and reminded me of Bob's Big Boy's Chili Spaghetti.

Everyone living on bases came from somewhere diff, tried, shared& fused foods &! FEASTS ON BASE! Our Cincy family introduced friends 2 our chili & loved it! Friends outside the base (w/out much "food exposure" didn't always care for it. I believe you MUST be from Cincinnati, military brat,open food lover, 2 truly enjoy Cincy Chili! Guy did WELL!

Definitely agree to cut way back on the cloves. I used just shy of 1/2 tsp. I also went a little lite on the nutmeg. The family really liked this. The flavor reminds me of musaka, probably due to the cinnamon in it. I think the earlier reviews were overly harsh and most likely due to the error in the amount of cloves to add. Also, just by reading the recipe it is very clear that this is not really what most Americans think of as chilli. This is a good recipe to use on those days when you don't know what to make for dinner since the ingredients are always on hand.

I can't wait to try this. I've been mindful of the reviews everyone has done, and I'll watch my clove content for sure. I may use a bit less nutmeg too, as that's not a flavor I'm very fond of, but I understand its importance in the full flavor profile of the chili. I will definitely re-review this once I get a shot at making it.
