When onions are clear add ground pork, ground beef, cumin seeds, chili powder and bay leaves. After meat is browned, drain fat. Add cinnamon, allspice, Mongolian Fire oil, cocoa powder, worchestershire and white vinegar, pureed tomatoes, dry chilis and salt. Simmer, covered, for 1-1/2hours.

| Notes: | This Chili was intriguing to me not only because of its ingredients,
but its similarity to "Matt's Chili Dogs" in the "on the side" condiments. Adapted from The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American. It was good -- but Rolf's was *awesome*! |
