CHILI DOGS



Chili Dogs image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 good-quality beef franks
2 good-quality hot dog buns
2 cups chili, recipe follows, heated
1/2 cup grated Cheddar
2 tablespoons finely diced onion
4 pounds ground beef
6 cloves garlic, minced
Two 8-ounce cans tomato sauce
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
1/4 cup chili powder, or more as desired
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more as desired
Two 15-ounce cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed
Two 15-ounce cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup masa harina (corn flour) or regular cornmeal

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Brown the franks in a small skillet over medium heat. Lightly toast the buns under the broiler. Put the franks on the buns and spoon on a bunch of chili. Add the cheese all over the top, then heat in the microwave to melt the cheese, 25 to 35 seconds. (Or if you're using an ovensafe plate, place it under a low broiler until the cheese melts, about 1 minute.) Sprinkle with the onion and dive in.
  • In a large, heavy pot, brown the ground beef with the garlic over medium heat until the beef is totally cooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off most of the excess fat, leaving a little behind for moisture and flavor. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and cayenne. Stir together well, cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally; if the liquid level seems low, add up to 1 cup water to keep it from burning.
  • After an hour, stir in the kidney and pinto beans. In a small bowl, combine the masa harina with 1/2 cup water and stir together with a fork until it's smooth. Pour the masa mixture into the chili. Stir together well, then taste the chili and adjust the seasonings. Simmer the chili for another 10 minutes to thicken, then turn off the heat and let it cool.
  • Fill freezer bags with 2-cup portions and freeze them flat for easy stacking (or freeze in other freezer-safe containers).

CHEESY SLOW COOKER CHILI DOGS



Cheesy Slow Cooker Chili Dogs image

I have taken this to potlucks in the past and people really love it! My family loves it too. Not the stuff of 5-star restaurants, but for my family this is comfort food! Take care with the type of hot dogs you buy because some of the really inexpensive ones have so much water in them it will make the sauce very thin.

CAROLINA CHILI DOGS (OAMC)



Carolina Chili Dogs (Oamc) image

Another fabulous recipe found on iVillage.com and placed here for safe keeping. I LOVE a good Chili Dog and this Hot Dog Chili is perfect. The chili can be made ahead of time (instructions for OAMC below as well).

Provided by januarybride

Categories     Meat

Time 40m

Yield 8 hot dogs, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 hot dogs
8 hot dog buns
1 1/4 lbs extra lean ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon cider vinegar or 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Begin making the Carolina Chili. (To avoid greasy chili, be sure to choose a very lean ground beef since the beef is not browned and drained in this recipe). Place the beef and 2 cups of water in a 4 1/2-quart Dutch oven or soup pot over high heat. Bring the water to a boil.
  • Add the chopped onion to the beef. When the water boils again, reduce the heat to medium. Stir to begin breaking up the meat.
  • Add the tomato paste, ketchup, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, salt, and pepper, if using. Stir well until the tomato paste has dissolved and the meat is mostly broken up.
  • Continue to cook the chili at a slow boil, stirring about every 5 minutes or so, until the mixture is thick, about 15 minutes. As the mixture thickens, you may need to reduce the heat to medium-low or low to prevent sticking.
  • Many Southerners prefer chili that is finely ground (roughly the consistency of cooked oatmeal) because it's easier to spread on a hot dog and easier to eat as well. To try it this way, place the chili (cooled at least 20 minutes) in a blender or food processor and blend on high until finely ground, 30 to 45 seconds.
  • While the chili simmers and about 12 to 15 minutes before you plan to serve the chili dogs, turn on a gas grill to medium-high.
  • Place the hot dogs on the hot grill and cook until heated through and just beginning to brown all over, about 5 minutes. Heat the buns on the grill, if desired. To serve, place each hot dog in a bun and smother with chili.
  • Make-ahead: The chili can be refrigerated, covered, for up to 2 days or it can be frozen for up to 2 months. * If the chili has been frozen, thaw it in a microwave oven on the defrost setting, following the manufacturer's directions and stirring after each 1-minute interval, then reheat. * To reheat, place the chili in a microwave-safe container, cover with a paper towel, and microwave on high until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes for 1 cup, stopping once halfway through.

HOT DOG CHILI FOR CHILI DOGS



Hot Dog Chili for Chili Dogs image

There is a vast difference between the chili you cook and serve on its own and the chili that you slap on a chili dog. The texture and taste have to compliment the dog using smaller amounts so it won't explode all over your face. This chili is our perfect double-dog-dare-you chili for use on hot dogs. Yes, they are hot dogs, not franks. Franks lived in France from the third to the fifth century on the banks of the Rhine River. If you must call them something other than hot dogs, try 'weinahs,' that works for us in the north.

Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 22

3 dried ancho chiles, stems removed but seeds left in
1 cup boiling water
3 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
2 tablespoons bacon drippings
1 white onion, diced
1 sweet red onion, diced
1 pinch salt
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups boiling water
2 pounds ground beef chuck
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 packets low-sodium beef bouillon granules
¼ cup spicy brown mustard
¼ cup dark red chili powder
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup ground cumin
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons adobo seasoning with cumin
2 tablespoons paprika
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
¼ cup masa harina, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place ancho chiles into 1 cup boiling water and set aside until softened, about 15 minutes. While chiles are soaking, place bacon in a large saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease but reserve 2 tablespoons bacon drippings in the pan.
  • Cook and stir white and red onion in bacon drippings with bacon over medium heat with a pinch of salt until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes; stir in garlic and cook until softened, about 1 more minute. Pour in 3 cups boiling water and stir in beef chuck, mixing the meat with the water to break it apart. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low.
  • Stir in tomato paste and beef bouillon granules until the granules dissolve; allow mixture to simmer while you complete remaining steps.
  • Place soaked ancho chiles and their liquid, spicy brown mustard, chili powder, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, garlic powder, adobo seasoning, and paprika into a blender and blend until smooth; pour mixture into the chili. Use a little water to dissolve remaining mixture in blender and pour into the chili.
  • Bring chili to a slow boil over medium-low heat and stir in kidney beans and masa harina. Reduce heat to low; allow to simmer until thick and the flavors have blended, at least 45 more minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. If chili is too thin, mix in more masa harina.

CINCINNATI CHILI DOGS



Cincinnati Chili Dogs image

Native Buckeyes pledge allegiance to this dog. Pile on the all-beef chili, heady with chocolate, cinnamon, and other spices, with abandon. The finishing touches are fundamental: yellow mustard, diced sweet onion, and lots of shredded cheddar cheese. Unless you're a pro at eating one, you may want to grab a knife and fork -- or a bib.
