I live hundreds of miles from the 2, best, hot dog chili's I know of - from western PA's Brighton Hot Dog Shoppe chain and from a little stand in the parking lot at the Lowes in Rehoboth, DE. So here's my version of the perfect topping for those hot dogs. I think I got it Just Right. But if you want it hotter go ahead and use 2 more cans of tomatoes with green chilis instead of the regular diced tomatoes.
Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef
2 lbs ground turkey
2 large onions, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons minced garlic cloves
2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes or 2 (15 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
2 (15 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies
1 (12 ounce) can tomato paste
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
Directions:
1. Brown the ground meats, making sure that they are finely crumbled, and drain off excess grease.
2. Add all other ingredients. Bring to a boil then simmer, stirring occasionally, 1-2 hours or until flavors are well matured and any excess liquid has been reduced.
3. Package and freeze in appropriate-sized portions for your household.
