How to Make Just Right Hot Dog Chili
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown 1 lb of ground beef (or a combination of beef and pork) over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon until finely crumbled. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 large onion, chopped; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes; 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes; 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce; 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, undrained; 1 tablespoon chili powder; 1 teaspoon cumin; 1 teaspoon oregano; 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional); 1 teaspoon salt; 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the flavors have melded and the chili has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. For a spicier chili, add an additional 1-2 (15 ounce) cans of diced tomatoes with green chilies.
- Once the chili has cooled, package into freezer-safe containers and freeze for up to 3 months.
