Whether you're tailgating, watching the big game at home or just planning a family movie night, this Texas Chili Dog is guaranteed to please. Delicious Ball Park Brand® Franks are even better when topped with hearty Texas chili, freshly grated cheese and chopped sweet onion. You can always add a few slices of jalapeno, if you like it hot. Tater Tots or Fritos make the best sides.

Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 Ball Park® Brand Franks
8 Ball Park® Hot Dog Buns
Yellow mustard
1 cup chopped yellow onion
2 cups grated Cheddar cheese
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ sweet yellow onion, chopped
½ red bell pepper, chopped
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons garlic granules
2 teaspoons paprika
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • To make chili, brown ground beef in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large saucepan for about 10 minutes over medium heat.
  • Add onion and red bell pepper, stirring well. Add tomato sauce and seasonings, stirring well.
  • Allow mixture to bubble for about 10 minutes, then reduce heat to simmer and cook at least 30 minutes.
  • To make hot dogs, cook on your grill or on a grill pan until just seared on the outside.
  • Meanwhile, toast buns in a 400-degree oven for about 10 minutes, taking care not to brown.
  • Swipe each bun with mustard, top with chili as desired, followed by grated cheese, onion and, if you're brave, jalapenos.
  • If you'd like the cheese all melty, place chili dogs on a foil-lined cookie sheet and run under a hot broiler for 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese bubbles.
