Made with 'second day chili' (everyone knows chili is best the second day) this is a delicious way to eat a chili dog in a new way! When I was a child we used to make hotdogs this way from time to time (especially when there were no hotdog buns in the house but we had hamburger buns) and I discovered one day that it is a perfect platform for a heaping helping of chili! Eaten with a fork, this is one chilidog that attempts to step onto the good china :)

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 hot dogs
6 hamburger buns
3 cups leftover chili
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced onion

Steps:

  • Take the raw hotdogs and slice 2/3 of the way through every half an inch (not lengthwise but as if you were cutting it up and not cutting all the way through).
  • Place hotdogs in pot and cook per directions on package, as they cook they will curl into circles.
  • Re-heat chili.
  • Place the now circular hotdogs on the bottom hamburger buns, fill the center with chili to overflowing.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and onions, then place top bun upside down on top of the chili, top with a little more chili and cheese and enjoy!
