Receta Texas Chili Cheese Dogs
A Texas style hot dog that's served with chili con carne (without beans) and topped with various toppings such as, cheese, onions, and mustard.
I love a good hot dog always have and always will. My occasional treat and guilty pleasure is Sonics New York Dog and their Chicago Hot Dog! When it comes to my husband, he's a whole different story. The only hot dog that he likes is Sonics extra long Chili Cheese Coney. Pretty boring if you ask me, but he isn't one for sauerkraut, onions or pickles on a hot dog.
Just the basic chili sauce and cheese for him, which is very popular in Texas. Recreating some of our favorite restaurant recipes is always fun. We may not get them exactly right, but pretty close in taste is enough for us. Since my husband loves Texas Chili-Cheese Dogs so much, I tried creating a recipe that my husband was happy with.
A Texas Chili Cheese Dog is a baked, or grilled hot dog smothered in a beefy chili sauce (with no beans), sprinkled with onions, and topped with cheddar cheese on a warm hot dog bun. If you like things a little on the spicy side you can add a few pickled jalapenos just before serving, but that's optional.
Texas Chili Cheese Dogs are wonderful baked and perfect when it comes to feeding a crowd. The chili sauce can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. When your guests arrive, assemble the hot dogs, spoon on the chili sauce, add the chopped onions, and top with a good amount of shredded cheddar cheese.
You can fit about 8 - 10 chili dogs into a 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Cover with foil and bake for 25 - 30 minutes, Remove from oven and enjoy. Garnish with additional onions, mustard or jalapenos just before serving.
