hot dog chili

Try this homemade beef Chili Dog recipe the next time you&#039;re craving comfort food, for a tailgate menu, or any time you fire up the grill.

Chili Dogs

olive oil

onion (finely chopped (about 1 cup))

red bell pepper

chili powder

cumin

oregano

chipotle chili powder ((see note 2))

thyme

coriander

Salt and black pepper

garlic (minced)

beef

tomatoes

tomato sauce

bay leaf

hot dogs

hot dog buns

cheddar cheese (for garnish, for topping)

red onion (chopped, for topping)

In a Dutch oven or stock pot, heat oil in over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onions, bell pepper, chili powder, cumin, oregano, chipotle chili powder, thyme, coriander, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cook until vegetables have softened, 7 to 10 minutes.

Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add beef and cook, breaking up the clumps with a spoon, until the beef is no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

Stir in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Remove lid and continue to simmer until the chili has thickened, about 1 hour longer (if chili sticks to the bottom of the pot, stir in 1/2 cup water and continue to simmer). Remove bay leaf and season to taste with salt and pepper.

To make the hot dog chili:

Heat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat, scraping the grill grates clean if needed. Score hot dogs on each side with a sharp knife.

Place the hot dogs on the grill, and grill until well-marked and heated through, about 2 minutes per side. Turn the heat off and carefully toast the buns on the still-warm grill, about 2 minutes.

To assemble, place a hot dog in each bun and top with the chili, cheddar cheese, and red onions, if desired.

Taste for seasonings and serve as is or on hot dogs, hamburgers or spooned over french fries!

Really good recipe. I did add a few red pepper flakes to the onions while they were cooking. I did add a little more beef broth only because I used 3 pounds of burger/sausage. Made it day ahead of time like I do all my chili so the flavors really meld together by the time we eat!

The recipe was very good. I have been using a more tomato flavored recipe, but this one tasted classic to me. I'm going to make it again this week.

I used a substitute meat product subbed the beef broth for vegetable broth and it came out fantastic! Used it for chili cheese fries with daiya shreads and used a plant based hotdogs

It sounds awesome gonna try this week, maybe I'll add bacon, can't go wrong with bacon.

I was so excited when I found this recipe.  I followed to the T and it didn’t have hardly any taste.  I thought it was my tastebuds so I had my husband taste. My husband kept adding to it until it was just ok but not what I think it should be.  I keep wondering what I missed. ☹️

Abosolutely amazing. Thank you. This is closest recipe I have found to the old fashioned southern chili I grew up on.

Coney sauce. Chili has beans! But delicious nonetheless

I love to take this chili , poor over a bed of  the small corn chips with shredded cheese mixed in , now top with chopped onions ,,,,great Frito Pie!

Is that the right amount of broth? I followed the recipe exactly and it is too dry. Meat soaked up all the liquid.

Loved this recipe. It is easy to make and the flavor is delicious.  I think I am going to make another batch just to freeze in serving sizes for a lazy night when I don't feel up to cooking.

I am highly allergic to MSG so really have to watch what I eat.  I love that this hot dog chili has no beans.  I don't have an insta pot - I have a Power Pro EL that I absolutely love, but that will work fine too.  I have been using pressure cookers since the 1960's.  Thank you so much for posting it.

Wow! This chili is delicious. My pot is sensitive so I add a little water before I put the lid on. I will use this recipe from now on!

This was so delicious, my family loved it. It was so easy to make, I think this is going to be a repetitive meal for us.

Love this chili recipe! I've made it in the InstantPot and in an electric skillet, and it's turned out great both ways! Thanks for sharing!

I made with ground venison so if you have any very lean meat, it worked perfectly! Easy and delicious, tangy and just the right spicy heat. Will be freezing some for future hot dogs. Pinned the recipe!

We did everything in the frying pan and used half the ketchup. I love garlic so I added like 1/2 teaspoon of garlic but otherwise came out phenomenal!

LOVE this recipe but I got the burn message twice.  Rarely ever happens to me so I’m a bit perplexed.  But, the flavor is fabulous—just then way I like my hot dog chili so I’ll tolerate the burn message. I, too, was born and raised in WV and we ALWAYS had chili on our hot dogs.  I can’t imagine any other way!!! Also, hot dog chili should NOT taste like chili with beans that you serve in a bowl. This one is just right!!!  

Not sure what to do different—after first burn message I made sure the bottom of the pot was scraped “clean” (well, it was “clean” the first time, as well) but it still happened. Like another reviewer I also drained off the rendered grease.  Maybe next time I’ll leave it to have a  little more liquid. Bottom line—5+++  stars for taste, 4 stars only for technique.

Here is tip or hint. I'm from Northern WV where hot dog chilli is an art firm. Do not fry or saute the meat; boil it and attack the meat with a potato masher while it cooks. Drain and use. You lose the fat and gain the right 
mouth feel.

I do not have an instant pot and due to limited space, will not be buying one.  However; I do want to let your followers know that this recipe works absolutely perfectly prepared in a heavy Dutch oven type container.  Just cook slowly on burner for approximately an hour, stirring frequently.  My husband does not like chili on his hot dogs.    He is still talking about how great your recipe was on the hot dogs he devoured!   He said it was the  best chili he had ever tasted.   I am ordering the meat grinder that you suggested just to achieve the consistency of the sauce as pictured on your site.  I am thankful that  I no longer have to research for a hot dog chili recipe  that my husband enjoys.  This is it!

am i the only one whos pot keeps saying burn?   really good stuff though

This came out great. My hubby hates hotdog sauce but one bite and he said we will be making more for the freezer. This was also good with tortilla chips and some shredded cheese. I also see this as stuffed avocados also.

I love hot dog chili like this!  J is a HUGE hot dog guy (he had a hot dog stand in high school) and he's very picky about what kind of chili tops his dog.  I showed him this and he asked me if we could make it this weekend.  Thumbs up here!
