Season with salt and cook, stirring often, until meat has lost all its pink color and is evenly crumbled, about 20 minutes. Scrape onions into casserole with meats. Stir in chili powder, cumin, oregano, cocoa, cinnamon and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Stir in tomato juice and beef stock. Bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour. Taste, correct seasonings and simmer another 30 minutes or until chili is thickened to your liking. Stir in garlic.
