No longer live in Cincinnati but really miss Cincinnati chili. Love that food!

Jason is a beast! Nicely done

Does anyone remember Empress Chili? I never had it.

I used to get it now and then. I went to one on the West Side in Delhi area. Also went to one in New Richmond. There is still one left in Alexandria across the bridge. The chili was a bit thicker than the others. It was almost orange, and it wasn't so hot but had a sharp flavor with a bit of sweetness.

@@marksnyder8022 nice! Thank you. I remember always driving by them. My mom made her own amazing Cincy Chili, so I never really ate any of them much…Skyline the most.

Camp Washington for me.

Gold Star FTW.

They don't all taste the same..they have subtle differences that arent so subtle if youre a cincinnatian😂

Idk how this popped up in my recommends...but as a life-long cincinnatian, i had to watch 😂

Grew up across the river, what happened to Blue Ash Chili? Is it not around anymore or just didn't make the cut? For the record, Goldstar is the best, hands down, no question, no debate 😉

I hands down s hit you not. They got shut down soooooooo many times in the 80's for getting caught for reserving folks leftover chili on the table and adding customers unfinished hamburgers into the chili pot!!! All the time I saw shutdown notices on the front door especially in 1983. Then they'd put the business in another family members name... Reopen then get caught AGAIN by the health department. Geeze.... Sometimes coworkers wanted to eat there in late 80's/ early 90's and my warning never stopped them. I've never tried their chili due to this. And when heard the famous chef Guy ferries ( sp??) was coming to town to try it.... I was like OMG I got to warn him if I see him and tell him must try skyline. I guess what! I freaking saw him downtown but I couldn't pull over to talk to him or else I would have been late to work.

Blue Ash Chili is alive and well in Blue Ash at 9565 Kenwood Rd.

I thought this was going to be a test of which chili was the best...but it turns out that this was just to see if someone could identify the chili.

Dixie Chili is the best - especially the 6 way

Impressive. I'm pretty sure I would have gotten four out of the five. Eat at them a lot. Haven't had Dixie.

How would you place all of these five parlors? What chili parlors (however obscure) should have been in the top five? I hope to do a mini chili parlor tour at some point. Thanks!

I'm new to the area and Cincinnati-style chili. Since I'm vegetarian my choices are limited but Skyline's flavor is the best but, Gold Star's Vegetarian Gorito is my new go to comfort food.

You can buy the seasoning packet and use it on something else. I'll seriously need to rack my brain what my ex used it on and she's usually vegetarian and lives in Sweden. It wasn't tofu. I don't remember. Many years ago. I gave her packets to take home

​@@tomreed-oe7hi Judgemental idiots can't be taken seriously. It takes a total jerk to degrade others for their choices of food to eat. So idiotic to care about it.

I'm from NJ. I will fess it up. I don't anything more about chili that native Cincinnatians know about pizza.

I grew up in Cincinnati. I like all of those because they are all Good for different reasons. But, I do prefer Skyline Chili.😀

What army did you take to go to price hill?

You forgot Blue Ash Chili.

Everyone thinks they would. "Yep, that's skyline" is the response to every bowl. The Bud Light of Cincinnati chili.

1960's-70's Madisonville had Art's Chilli Kitchen. Just saying...

Why does the skyline chili crackers in the box taste so different than the in-restaurant one. The ones at skyline came from a cracker factory, the ones in the box came from a rejected paint flavor factory.

Have you compared the ingredient lists on both packages? Aldi's has excellent oyster crackers for the price. They're not the same as the Skyline's crackers, but I suspect they're made by Westminster Bakers Co, given the identical ingredients. Sadly, Aldi's saltines have a different ingredient list and appear to be made by someone else.
