Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet over medium high head, add ground beef and cook until browned. About 5-7 minutes. Drain off excess grease and add to the crock pot.
  • Add all the remaining ingredients and give everything a good stir until well combined.
  • Cover and cook on high for 1½ - 2 hours stirring occasionally.
  • Serve over hot dogs and top with favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Enhance your chili dogs by adding these popular hot dog toppings.
    • Shredded cheddar cheese
    • Diced white onions
    • Jalapenos
    • Relish
    • Coleslaw
    • Mustard
    • Ketchup
    • Sauerkraut
  • To prevent hot dog chili from thickening too quickly and to make the most of it, try adding a couple of tablespoons of water, beef broth, or even ketchup.
  • To cook it on the stovetop, start by browning the ground beef and then combine all the chili ingredients in a large pot. Let it simmer for 20-25 minutes while stirring occasionally until it thickens. It's as simple as that!
