Provided by Jamie Sherman

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 boxes (7.25 oz. each) Mac and Cheese dinner
1 pound lean ground beef
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 small onion, chopped
1 package (14-16 oz.) hot dogs, chopped
A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
8 ounces tomato sauce
8 ounce can of water (use the empty tomato sauce can)
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove the cheese packets from both boxes of mac and cheese and set them aside. When the water comes to a boil, cook the mac and cheese dinners according to package directions. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef with the salt, pepper, onion and hot dogs until the beef is no longer pink. Drain if necessary. Return the mixture to the skillet. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, tomato sauce and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. (I like ours the consistency of Sloppy Joe's, but make yours how you like it).

I combined two favorites of mine to make my family's ultimate comfort food! I took this to a pot luck and got rave reviews. I have even made it with cut up hot dogs for chili dog casserole. **Extra note based on reviews: This is not meant to be a spicy dish, if you like your chili hot you might want to use the hot chili seasoning packet, or else use two of the regular ones. You could also add a bit of hot sauce. My family does not eat spicy (hot spicy) food, so this dish is suited to our tastes, if you like extra kick, adjust it to suit yours!

Tips

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the macaroni and cheese will be. Use a flavorful cheese blend, such as cheddar, Colby, and Monterey Jack. And, be sure to use fresh ground beef and hot dogs.
  • Cook the macaroni al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the ideal texture for pasta. Pasta should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight bite to it. This will prevent the macaroni from becoming mushy when it is combined with the other ingredients.
  • Make a flavorful chili: The chili is a key component of this dish, so be sure to make it flavorful. Use a variety of spices, such as chili powder, cumin, and paprika. You can also add some diced onions, bell peppers, and jalapeños for extra flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese sauce: The cheese sauce is what brings all of the ingredients together. Be sure to use a cheese sauce that is flavorful and creamy. You can use a store-bought cheese sauce, or you can make your own using a roux.
  • Don't overcook the macaroni and cheese: Once you have combined all of the ingredients, be sure to not overcook the macaroni and cheese. Cook it just until the cheese is melted and the macaroni is heated through. Overcooking will make the macaroni and cheese dry and chewy.

Conclusion

Hot dog chili mac and cheese is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover hot dogs and chili. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
