I love chili-dogs, and this is a great way to have them without the bread (which I think just gets in the way of great chili!)

How To Make chili-dog chili

    Brown hamburger. Drain and put into large soup pot. Chop onion, saute in hot oils until translucent. Grate garlic cloves into pan for the last couple minutes of sauteing. Add to soup pot.

    Add more oils to pan, heat. Cut hotdogs into bite-sized pieces. Cook until well browned, add to soup pot.
  • Step 3
    Empty stewed tomatoes into a bowl, cut into smaller bite-sized pieces with two table knives. Add to hot pan to de-glaze and reduce juices to half. Add to soup pot.
