The BEST Chili Cheese Hot Dogs with a KICK!

[@ChilesandSmoke]

What are your favorite chili dog toppings?

[@croonch85]

pickles ,cheese, bacon....

[@JonathanScoggins]

I like some chipotle mayo or crema

[@ChilesandSmoke]

@@JonathanScoggins oooo didn’t think of chipotle mayo

[@anniessmokingpot]

Peppercinis and Chipotle Mayo 😋

Pretty standard for my toppings. Chili, Cheese, onions and mustard. Nachos were invented in the 60's in ur kitchen. Sloppy Joes Night with ripple chips. The sloppy joe meat that fell on the plate were scooped up with ripple chips.They have evolved quite a bit since. But that is the original Nachos for our household.

[@ChilesandSmoke]

[@croonch85]

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Heck yeah! Yes, I ate two...

[@kenh4848]

Looks amazing!

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Thanks! Super simple too

Fantastic. They'd be a hit at any gathering. Problem being everyone would whine if you didn't make them every time. I would put the cheese on the bottom and may even use slices to stabilize the bun and to let the chili get down in there and bathe the dog and not sit on the pillow of cheese. Shreds on top, of course. Mustard on the chili and raw sweet onion on top. One thing we always do is serve a green onion alongside-one for each dog-for crisp oniony crunch to enjoy between or with each bite. But we really love onions. Your potato chip idea is pure genius.

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Thanks! I like your game plan. I’m a huge green onion fan as well!

I freaking love my meat masher! Mrs. Learning to Smoke bought me one a while back and it’s changed my life.

[@ChilesandSmoke]

One of the best tools in the kitchen

[@GMurph2336]

I love this channel. What’s your smoker btw?

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Thanks! That was the Yoder YS640

[@DaleSHess]

I’ve been looking for a good Smoked Chili Cheese Hotdog recipe and I think I just found it. What smoke wood did you use in your Yoder smoker?

[@ChilesandSmoke]

I used a competition blend that has oak, hickory, and a little maple. Please let me know if you try this recipe

[@Susan-cooks]

That chili looks perfect for chili dogs. I put a layer of cheese between the bun and the hot dog, but otherwise, I top them the same way you did. Nothing like a chili dog when you're craving a bit of spicy comfort food :)

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Thank you! It’s so simple to make too, instant craving crushed

[@mickscott2284]

My cousin's wife always serves a side dish with chopped pineapple and mango, surprised me on how well it works on chili dogs.

[@ChilesandSmoke]

I bet that’s good! Very odd to think about at first, but I’d try for sure

[@semigoth299]

Chilli dawgs come get your chilli dawgs right here 😂❤ 🥹🤤😋

[@ChilesandSmoke]

You already know, so good 😂

[@lisaletto7337]

I notice you didn't pre grill buns or bake finished product. That makes things easier

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Those are tasty steps but not mandatory!

[@danweisman8113]

Only thing thats missing for me is jalapeno. Fire recipe though.

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Next time!

[@ericgobroncos1533]

You nailed it with mustard and onions

[@ChilesandSmoke]

Thanks!
