About the Blend & How it Spread
The History
Seven Hills Chili is one of many secret family recipes passed down from the founder's late Grandmother, Alice. Seven Hills Chili Original blend is a special blend of seasonings and spices that result in a savory, Cincinnati style chili.
Almost a century ago, Grandma Alice developed a recipe for Chili inspired by Cincinnati’s original Chili Parlor. The founders of that chili parlor added a unique blend of Mediterranean spices that provide that famous and unique Cincinnati Chili flavor.
The Legacy
Today, all current Cincinnati chili parlors use a version of that original recipe. Over the years, Grandma tweaked her recipe – all the way to perfection. Although she never dreamed of opening her own parlor, she served her Cincinnati style chili to her family and friends until her death in 1976. Although all of the current parlors in Cincinnati have excellent chili, we think you will agree, Seven Hills Chili – Grandma Alice’s secret recipe – is superior to them all.

"I am not familiar with Cincinnati chili but wanted to give this a try. This is good. All I did was brown one pound of ground chuck then drain and added 4 tablespoons of the seasoning; one large can crushed tomatoes and a can of kidney beans. Served over spaghetti and added shredded cheddar. My family thought it was great." -Cindy on Amazon
