Crock Pot Hot Dog Chili
Description
This chili recipe begins by browning ground beef and removing excess grease and water. The beef is combined in a crock pot with tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, stirred thoroughly.
Cooking occurs on low for 3–4 hours or on high for 1.5–2 hours, allowing flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken. The seasoned chili is designed to be served on hot dogs, adding a savory and tangy layer atop the classic sausage.
The balance of sweet and savory ingredients creates a mild chili that enhances hot dogs without overwhelming them. Its consistency can be adjusted with water if needed.
Using lean or low-fat ground beef helps reduce greasiness while retaining flavor. Leftover chili can be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to five days for convenience.
