How to Make A W Chili Dog Sauce
- Finely chop 1 large onion. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion to the browned beef and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 (15 ounce) can of chili beans (undrained), 1 (15 ounce) can of tomato sauce, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for at least 1 hour, or up to 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor will be!
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more brown sugar for sweetness, cayenne for heat, or Worcestershire for umami depth.
- Serve immediately over your favorite hot dogs or burgers, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
