Step 1

Add the ground beef to a small pot over medium heat. Let it cook until you see some fat in the pan then add the onions and garlic. Continue to cook until the meat is no longer pink and the onions are soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the honey and chili powder to the pot and stir well. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes to caramelize the honey then add the diced tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Let the chili simmer on low heat while you prepare the dogs and buns.

Step 3

Cook the hot dogs and warm the buns over a fire, on a grill, or in a pan on your stove. When they’re ready, put a hot dog in each bun and top with ¼ cup of the chili, 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar, and some green onions. (See notes)
