If you read my Portillo’s Restaurant Review, you will know I LOVE hot dogs. When I go to different butcher shops, I will pick up a package of their homemade hot dogs to try out. From the store, I can’t resist a good Nathan’s, Sahlen’s or Sabretts dog.

When it comes to a good old-fashioned chili and cheese dog, I want my chili homemade. I don’t want that gross stuff out of the can. This recipe is very easy.

I have this great little hamburger grinder tool I got from Pampered Chef that I used to break down the meat. You don’t have to use one, but I recommend it because that is what grinds the meat into tiny pieces. This Amazon version: Chopstir Nylon Chopper does a great job also and it is a little cheaper. 

The hot dog chili freezes well also. I will make a big batch and freeze half for later use. Enjoy!
