How to cook deliciously - Chili Dog

1. Stage

Cook the bacon, onions, ground beef, garlic: Fry the bacon over medium heat until it begins to get crispy, then add the chopped onions and fry over high heat, stirring often, until they begin to brown. Stir in the ground beef. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned, a few minutes. When the beef is about halfway browned, stir in the chopped garlic.

2. Stage

Add the tomato sauce, molasses, broth, spices: Once the beef is well browned, stir in the tomato sauce, molasses and beef broth. Add all the spices except the cayenne and stir well. Bring to a simmer and taste. Add salt or the cayenne if it needs it. You can add more cayenne or chili powder if you like things really spicy, but taste first before adding more.

3. Stage

Simmer for 30 min or more: Cook the chili on a gentle simmer for at least 30 minutes before you start grilling the hot dogs. You can cook it several hours if you want to, adding a little more beef broth here and there if the chili gets to dry.

4. Stage

Grill the hot dogs: Grill the hot dogs over medium heat until they get a light char. Grill the hot dog buns briefly if you want – no more than a minute, as they will burn fast. You can also paint the buns with olive oil or butter before grilling if you’d like. Dog goes in bun, chili goes on top, sprinkle on chopped red onion and shredded cheese, and have at it!
