Method

Chili Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Beef

    In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spoon until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in the tomato sauce, kidney beans, chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and water. Mix well to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Chili

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Hot Dog Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the Hot Dogs

    While the chili simmers, prepare the hot dogs according to package instructions. This can be done by grilling, boiling, or microwaving.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Buns

    If desired, lightly toast the hot dog buns on a grill or in a toaster.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Chili Dogs

    Place each hot dog in a bun. Generously top with chili from the pot.

  2. 8

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle shredded cheese, chopped green onions, and a dollop of sour cream on top of the chili.
