Treat your ingredients with care...
- Hot dog buns — Toasting the buns on the grill adds a nice crunch and prevents them from becoming soggy.
- Beef chili — For a homemade chili, brown ground beef in a skillet, then add diced onions, garlic, tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and a pinch of sugar. Simmer for 20 minutes to develop the flavors.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce or sprinkle some cayenne pepper on top.
- Customize your toppings by adding mustard, ketchup, or pickles.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, opt for a mild chili or reduce the amount of chili used.
- Experiment with different types of cheese, such as pepper jack or Swiss, for a unique twist.
- Serve with a side of crispy french fries for a complete meal.
