Help!
Desperately looking for a good hot dog chili recipe.
We usually bought the Texas Pete brand hot dog chili.
It was perfect.
The beef was finely ground and it had a thick consistency that kept it where you put it.
The company that produced it was bought out by a competitor and the Texas Pete brand was discontinued.
All the brands sold in my area are watery and the chunks of beef are more suited to chili *beans*.
If anyone has a recipe for a non-spicy, thick hot dog chili please post it or mail me.
My perfect hot dog is a beef dog (Hebrew National preferred) on a slightly toasted bun with mustard, onions, chill and slaw.
On occasion I go with mustard and sour kraut for a taste difference.

Here’s the ingredients and nutritional for the Texas Pete’s hot dog sauce...I think I’d rather go with homemade. ;) Soy crumbles? eewww....;)

And, this youtube recipe for Texas Hot Weiner sauce looks interesting, something regional around upstate NY.

Last month I was in Waterbury, CT for work and went to this hot dog place called Frankie's that had been recommended to me. On the menu was... well... guess!
I added my own mustard and onions, because that's how I like it too... oh with a pickle slice too sometimes. I just thought it funny that the world knows it as a WV dog. I suppose the world also knows "WV Pizza" includes ranch dressing for dipping!
I love the Hebrew National dogs. Sometimes I add them to my scrambled eggs instead of sausage or bacon.
