The Gold Star owners, Daoud's are very good folks from Jordan, they attend my church on occassion, Community family church Pastor Tommy Bates & they support our church & we support their chili parlors & it is delicious
It's always worth driving the extra 2 hours from Portsmouth to Cincinnati to get my chili fix. I was born and raised in NC and I've loved Cincinnati Chili since the first time I tried it. It's so good and always very satisfying on a cold day!
Being a Tennesseean, With parents from Indiana, I have an abiding love for both Texas style Chili, Classic Firehouse chili with beans, and Cincinnati's variety, despite having never been there, I buy canned Skyline chili. I'm eating some now. But Classic Chili, Texas Chili, and Cincinnati Chili are really very different animals. All equally awesome, and I can appreciate Chili diversity. I love Skyline. Never tried Goldstar.
I was introduced to Cinncinati Chili several years ago by a former Ohioanian family friend. Adds a nice occasional dimension to the chili repertoire. I have only had homemade, gold star canned and chili made from the blue seasoning packets. Never had the real deal.
If you had Gold Star from the can, then you had the real deal. You just didn't have it here in Cincinnati. Same would be true if you used the Skyline cans. But the blue seasoning packet, I don't know about that. Camp Washington chili is the best!.
Delhi Chili!! My mom was a waitress there in the early 60's. Miss you Cincinnati!!! So much. Chili, La Sourdesville, the Big Red Machine, Kings Island and I even miss Price Hill.
You're killing me, brother! I loved Delhi Chili! I drove for Skyline Taxi located at 8th and State at the foot of Price Hill and I was in Delhi a lot and ate there a lot...Yeah, La Sourdesville, Fantasy Farm, The Hitching Post (Best Fried chicken), La Rosas, Montgomery Inn Ribs, White Castle. I even miss the "P&G" factory smell from the Ivorydale plant on Spring Grove, mixed in with the sweet smell from the schnapps (was it Dekuyper?) distillery between St, Bernard/ Carthage...when I'd been away, coming back in on I75 and those smells would hit you at the Norwood Lateral...take a big whiff.."I'm HOME!"
The Daoud family and gold star are great. I believe they are Jordanian, anyway, they support our church and we support them, God bless the family and their business. Also, i believe they are the only non-greek owned chain chili parlors except for franchisees.
I've been living in Florida for over ten years now, and i have to say I really miss this stuff. I'm just glad there's a skyline about an hour from my house or i would go nuts.
5-ways are what I always order when I eat Gold Star or Skyline. However, I've had 6-ways at Blue Ash Chili (5-way w/ deep-fried beer-battered jalapeños) and Dixie Chili (5-way w/ chopped fresh garlic) and they're even more awesome!
After visiting relatives in Lawrenceburg, I have to say it's so damn good. Honestly, I recommend getting it on a hot dog. It's good any of the ways, but I just LOVED the coneys. Lawrenceburg is like a stone's throw from Cincinnati. I've eaten at Goldstar and Skyline.
I'm also an OK native that has been thoroughly won over. Closest thing in OK is Topdogs in Norman. They are different, but both delicious. Most chili dogs in OK are garbage.
I grew up in the Hudson Valley in NY, and where I grew up "Coney Dogs" tasted almost exactly like Cincinnati Chili (my great-grandmother had a handwritten a recipe for this kind of chili from before I was born). When I moved from NY to Florida, I'd order a Coney and get your basic texas-style chili dog. One day I found a vendor who made a "Greek Coney" that tasted exactly like what I remembered from growing up, and it turns out he was from Ohio and essentially used the skyline recipe in his Greek dog. I'm really curious how upstate NY and Cincinnati share this tradition - I don't think my family or anybody has been to Ohio, but maybe the Greek migration from NYC to Cincinnati caused it? Regardless, this was a cool video to watch.
@@shirleyabel6027 i agree with you ma'am, the 1st chili parlor was empress in 1929 & you do not see many of them anymore.( empress taste is very close to skyline) Dixie chili branched off from empress between 2 friends relatives( not sure which) & it was a friendly departure as empress was in cinti & dixie chili went to newport , ky., to open their 1st parlor so as not to be competitors. Most of the other parlors whether chain or 1 owner started in thw early 1940's. Every cinti chili parlor whether chain or 1 owner were started by greek immigrants except gold star which was started by the Daoud brothers who are from the country of Jordan in the middle east. Some franchisee's of chain parlors are not greek, but the chains were started by greeks. Thought you might be interested, God bless.
Camp wasington is my favorite 1 owner chili parlor & # 1 overall, my fave chain parlor is skyline followed by empress & gold star tied for a close 2nd.
Whenever you're feeling good and hungry, It's Skyline Time Gather together with friends and family, It's Skyline Time Wholesome, hearty food and a taste that's so divine. Together, at last, it's Skyline Time To all you non Cincinnatians out there, the jingle is to the tune of The Platters - Twilight Time.
Man, Skyline time can be anytime as long as I have access to Skyline Chili. I've been hooked on it ever since the first time I tried it at a Skyline Chili in the Columbus, OH suburbs. I sometimes make my own Cincinnati Chili and it tastes very much like Skyline but more beefy. I could go for a 6-way and some coneys!
Chris I live 30 minutes east of Cincinnati. I have a Skyline roughly 5 minutes from me in one direction and a Gold Star 10 minutes in the other. I couldn't imagine what I would do if I had to move away from Cincinnati and never get to have access to its style of chili ever again.
+corvettez06usa Man, you're lucky. Cincinnati is one of my favorite cities in America. Cincinnati is a 9 hour drive from my house in NC and the best that I can do is find Skyline Chili in cans or frozen at a few stores. It's good at best but not the same nor as good as what I'd get at the actual restaurant. Every time I'm in the Cincinnati area, I gotta have some chili because it's that good.
Yes they did, but they could mention them all, whether chains or 1 owner parlors, i have never had bad cinti chili and i have eaten at many, there is just some i prefer over others.
Skyline chili is the best my niece work to skyline chili in Fairfield Ohio for 9 years gold Star chili is okay skyline chili is the best after all it's skyline time
The only places i know of with greek chili that is close is Lafayette & coney island which are side by side in Detroit due to a family riff, & Mike's chili parlor in Seattle, Wa.
I eat skyline often and I know the ingredients. Try adding lots of allspice, a little cinnamon and chocotate sauce or bars to your regular pasta sauce. That is cincy chili. I don't think ginger is an ingredient that I would use, but it could work.
The best chili is at Dixie Chili in Newport Ky; I've been eating it since I was 3 years old and it will always be my favorite. Second best for me is Price Hill Chili and 3rd is Gold Star. Delhi Chili is also good and I hate Skyline.
Camp washington has the best, if you want just a bowl of chili no toppings except oyster crackers & maybe hot sauce, Johnny uses bull beef meat & the meat is not ground quite as fine as other chili parlors, but it is still ground into small pieces of meat very delicious
You should just order some of the chili... They sell it in cans here... Im sure you can find it. Look up Gold Star Chili, Skyline Chili, Camp Washington Chili or Dixie Chili
Honestly haven’t tried a parlor that I haven’t loved. Skyline is in the family but sometimes I feel like Gold Star but can resist a Way and Gravy Cheese fries at Pleasant Ridge
I know there are thousands of loyal Cincinnati chili fans. I am not one of them. I took a job in Cincinnati in 1962, just out of the Navy, and didn't have much money. There were a lot of small mom and pop chili parlors in Cincinnati and it was cheap and I love chili. I also ate a lot of chow mein. But the chili I ate in Cincinnati was regular good old midwestern chili ( tex-mex I suppose). I had eaten this stuff all my life growing up. So it didn't impress me as anything special, just good ole chili. My mother made her chili with beans and over spaghetti, so chili over spaghetti was nothing different to me. I live in Indianapolis and heard of Skyline chili here. My wife and I went to Skyline chili to try it out and neither of us thought it was any good. She is from Arizona. I have tried Skyline chili three more times in different locations since then and the results are all the same. Sorry, just don't like it. Doesn't mean it isn;t good, just means it isn't for everybody. BTW. I saw the Reds play their last season in old Crosley field. Held 28,000 I believe. Also got to see Oscar play for the pro-Cincinnati basketball team. Cincinnati Royals I think. Haven't been to Cincinnati in years but really liked living there back in the day.
OK you Cincy folks out there,help me out here.I want to try this chili with the mediterranean flair but the recipe I got called for a spice named cardamom(?-never heard of it).After doing some research I found that it's a spice of the ginger family-I also found that it's the third most expensive spice by weight.My question is can I substitute fresh ginger for cardamom and still get authentic results (or would I be hunted down and hanged for plagerism)? Thanks!
@Scorponok2009 To each their own, I suppose... Have you ever even had Cincinnati Chili, though? I'm not saying it's some sort of "master race" chili, but it's not really fair to judge something you've never experienced.
This isn't chili at all but rather a unique meat sauce. Whoever first decided to label it as chili must have done so with an eye to marketing an unfamiliar food under a familiar-sounding name, as early Italian immigrants did when they called marinara sauce "gravy."
@Scorponok2009 Not very bright are ya? I've NEVER seen anyone try Cincinnati chili & not LOVE IT. I have to send it to friends around the Country. You have no idea what you're missing. Oh well!
I have to admit, when making chili, I actually prefer the Cinci method to others. It has a smoother overall texture and is not as oily, and also provides a good base from which you can add other ingredients to taste (i.e., beans, onions, smoked sausage, etc.).
. Don't know.I lived in Cincinnati in the 60's. Went to watch the Reds play baseball in old Crosley Field. Seated 28,000 as I remember. I was just out of the Navy and didn't have much money so I was looking for cheap rent and cheap food. I ate a lot of chili in Cincinnati chili parlors. In those days there was no Skyline chili or any chili chains. The chili parlors I ate in were small mom and pop places and they were serving what I call Midwest chili, similar to what my mother used to cook. To me, that was Cincinnati chili. My mother used to pour her chili over spaghetti so this is not special or unusual to me. Skyline and the others were not there yet. Cincinnati chili existed before these new outfits existed. I tried Skyline chili 3 or 4 different times and I guess I don't have the right tasters for this style. I thought it was awful, and I have friends who agree, but I know a lot of people love this stuff. I still love chili and make it a lot. I read somewhere ( Wikipedia, I think), that if you grew up eating midwestern chili you probably would not like this other chili. Don't know.
Charlie, the most iconic chili parlor in Cincinnati is located in the Clifton section of the city (corner of Ludlow and Clifton ave.) and I have been eating there since 1966 or a little before. There was Gold Star as well...and Empress Chili...DIxie Chili (in Northern Ky) and of course, Camp Washington Chili. Glad the Chili Parlors were there for ya at a time you needed cheap eats! Also, thanks for your service to the country!
The young man at appx, 5:10 if you are eating there 3-4 times a week I hope it is 1 that serves deli sandwiches, etc... I really like there chili also & my wife & I eat there 4-5 times a month, but if you are only eating chili you better start on lipitor now for your choleseterol,, trust me an 59 yr old Irishman
Johnny you came over 04-06-1951, not sure what date tax filing reports were due at the time but if it was 04-15, you should have waited 2 weeks to come here Johnny or worked for no pay so no tax filing, lol
Those folks didn't come here to find their fortunes in the claais cincinnati chili, they created cinti chili, all different tastes, but was not here til they came & started with empress & dixie chili
Young fellow that said they eat at skyline 3-4 times a week, omeone if not both of you need to learn how to cook at home, wow, you can't live on skyline with no veggies, etc...Cinti state tech college up on the hill ner Clifton has a culinary program plus cooking classes, enroll would be good for your health ,
Camp Washington use to be the best when it was the little hole in the wall parlor behind the current location. They clearly gave up their quality for quantity.
This is a confusing concept. First time in Cincinnati I walked into a Skyline. Saw a "three Way" on the menu, and figured if I told the young female waitress I wanted that i'd get arrested. Then I see people eating pasta noodles, but this isn't an Italian restaurant. So I order a bowl of chili. The waitress gives a weird look. I sip on this cinnamon soup and get stared at. I'm from New Jersey. We don't get this.
Cincinnati Chili will make your intestines explode, if you get my drift. If you have never had it before, be prepared to spend some time in the lavatory soon after consumption.
No pizza..., a five way would be nice on a pizza crust, you can't fool me, I'll just pre-cook the crust and I can make a five way Cincinnati Chili, and you can't stop me...., I'll throw it in a submarine bun, if you try...
Cincinnati should be known for their BBQ. I was blown away how many damn good locally owned BBQ places exist in that town!!
Fellow at the counter eating his chili way & reading the newspaper, very relaxed & that is the way to eat there
This was so much fun to watch. I’m in Durham NC now and there’s no chili! Luv’ya Cincy! ❤️❤️❤️

Norwood here, and I eat Cinci chili at LEAST 3 times a week, and it's been that way for 16+ years! LOVE IT
I reference this video so much! LOVE our roots. #CincyMade #MeltingPot #WeBleedChili

HEADBANGERSBALLER When I lived in Cincinnati I lived in Price Hill. I went to the original Skyline, before it moved. I sure miss it !

Does Delhi put beans and onions in it?

Honestly haven’t tried a parlor that I haven’t loved. Skyline is in the family but sometimes I feel like Gold Star but can resist a Way and Gravy Cheese fries at Pleasant Ridge
There is only one correct answer as to which chili is the best......Skyline !
