Did you know that Cincinnati isn’t the only place known for putting spaghetti in their chili? Louisvillians add spaghetti to theirs too! A couple of differences though–we don’t put cinnamon in our chili like what you would see from Skyline Chili, and we mix our noodles in with the chili. For a little extra heat, I like to add a can of Rotel to the mix. I shared this very chili recipe on Monday’s a Crock on Facebook. To see the replay, click here.
