Hot dog chili, D.Q. style

[Rafter S]

The secret to rich taste in chili is a cup of good strong coffee. Never eat chili the same day you make it. Needs to set overnight for everything to blend together.
Also a liberal dousing of Tony Chachere's seasoning, which goes good on everything but ice cream and pumpkin pie.

The secret to good chili (at least one of them) is to cut a steak into bite-sized pieces and add that to it. You'd be surprised what a difference that makes.

Another secret to good chili is don't put good chili on a hotdog.
Just eat the chili.

Gotta have beans in it. I figure if you guys down there can get away with wearing your toboggans on your heads then us northerners can put beans in our chilli.

We use wolf brand for chili dogs and cover up the taste with mustard

 

[Warren Allison]

no.

Leaves too much to question since chili powder is a mix of many different spices and herbs, and depending which brand you have, the taste can be completely different each time you make the dish.

Not if you use the same brand each time.

IDK about DQ, but Mugs Up drive-in in Columbia MO had the best chili-cheese fries I ever ate. I still dream about a Zipburger and an order of chili-cheese fries from Mugs Up. And a Burnt-End sandwich from Mizzou Barbecue...

Wolf brand was better back then like a lot of things.
I use to love vienne sausages when I was a kid, they aren't as good anymore.
Unless my taste buds have changed a lot of the canned foods just don't taste good to me

Thanks for the tip. We go through Columbia a couple times a year on our way to family in Salina ks. I'll make it a point to stop.

Beans in my chili? No, No and Hell No! and I prefer chunk beef or elk to hamburger. Only reason to use beans is if there is no meat available.
