Step 1

Add the 5 cups of water in a large pot.  I like to use my dutch oven for this.

Step 2

Add the tomato paste and chocolate and heat over medium heat stirring to combine for about 3 minutes. (I stir with a whisk to really break up the tomato paste)

Step 3

Add chili powder, cinnamon, garlic powder, cumin, allspice, cloves, red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, sugar and vinegar.

Step 4

Next, crumble the raw ground beef into the pot with your fingers, then use a potato masher, whisk or fork to break up the meat into very fine pieces.

Step 5

Turn heat to high to bring to a boil.

Step 6

Once boiling, turn the heat down to med-low.

Step 7

Cook, uncovered, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, at a low boil.. stirring occasionally until sauce has thickened quite a bit.

Step 8

Serve over thin spaghetti or a hot dog.
