You know I always read blogs saying..."the pictures don't do this justice"...."this tasted so much better than my pictures look"...Well I'm not going to lie, this looks like slop! And in the pictures, it looks like slop! But it's some good tasting slop! And very sloppy to eat, better wear a bib...or eat with a fork and knife.
My
The first night I made it...Michael got home from work just in time to see me spooning the last of the canned chili over to of the hot dogs...he was like "WTF???" I was like "it's chili cheese coney casserole". Fast thinking...huh? And surprisingly it turned out good...so this is my second time making them. So you know it's YUMMMMMMY!!!!
Now this is really going to sound odd, but first you spread the inside of your buns with mayo...Weird...I know, but just do it! I think that came out wrong...not your buns...THE HOT DOG BUNS.
Then place the buns into a foil lined 9x13-inch size baking dish...It's the perfect size for 8 hot dogs...cram them in! Spoon a little pickle relish and mustard into the buns if you like...then a wiener in each bun.
Spoon chili over top of each dog...It doesn't have to be perfect.
Then top with the cheese and onions...cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
Oven Hot Dogs
adapted from In the Wabe
8 hot dogs
8 hot dog buns
mayonnaise
mustard
pickle relish
1 can of chili
shredded cheddar cheese
diced onion
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread mayonnaise on the inside of each bun. Add relish and mustard to the buns. Place a hot dog in each bun and cram into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Top the hot dogs with chili, cheese, and diced onion. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the hot dogs for serving with a spatula.
I think this would be an awesome thing to serve at a Super Bowl party too!
I have no doubt that this tasted good. I think its a cool way to serve up chili dogs. I know my family would enjoy it...I would eat it up, and takes Tums later.
ReplyDeleteVery cool.

Thanks for giving me props, hooker! I made these Monday night. Had them for lunch leftovers yesterday. They warm up well. As I told you, I don't think I will ever make hot dogs another way again.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely my kind of slop! I've never heard of cooking hot dogs this way but, it sounds easy enough. I'm intrigued now and have to try it!
ReplyDeleteYes....This is awesome! Saliva drooling now...
ReplyDeleteI first noticed this recipe on Pinterest too....and I pinned it right away! The idea of baking it all in the oven was intriguing. I'm definitely making this one. I think it looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing- Maybe I'll try if for a superbowl party dish.
ReplyDeleteI would probably try to make this one, it sounds so yummy...
ReplyDeleteThat's the best looking slop I've seen in ages, Bo! I bet it was so indulging and good. I'm not one for much on my hot dog either, but every now and then a chili dog is needed.. this would definitely satisfy that craving!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good kid friendly idea. Do the buns get soggy?
ReplyDeleteRobin...no they don't get soggy.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I hate soggy bread.
Deleteyum cant beat good hotdogs and America rocks at them
ReplyDeleteDROOOLING!! This makes me crave for hot dogs! This is torturing. Can see cannot eat! LOL!
ReplyDeleteRobin, I am hijacking your response since I have made this dish many times. The buns do not get soggy, but they are soft. Also, I want to mention that you can "lighten" this dish (as I have done) by using whole wheat buns, turkey hot dogs, light mayo, turkey chili and reduced fat cheese. It's not quite as indulgent and tasty but it makes you feel a little better about eating it! LOL
ReplyDeleteI had no idea you were so health conscious!
DeleteWell, I am TRYING to eat a little better. So I don't wind up like my hooker Paula Deen. ;)
DeleteThanks!
DeleteGood lord you are going to have some fantastic game day party with these bad boys! WOW!
ReplyDeleteYou're talking to someone who thinks hot dogs are made for sauerkraut and mustard. Period. Nothing else. And never mayo. But then you show all that melty cheese and my knees grow weak.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know hot dogs could look so good.

Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard reading this post. I am sure when my husband comes home he will say the same thing if I made these....but they look sooooo goood. I completely agree, this is perfect superbowl food. Or if you didn't have a reason to have a party I would make something up just so I could make these! I actually think the pictures look scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteBo,
ReplyDeleteLong time no talk to. I read your blog all the time. That looks awesome!
This recipe is delicious! I had someone enter a recipe similar to this one in a contest I host at the Iowa State Fair. All of the judges loved it.
ReplyDeleteA few days ago I came across this recipe on In The Wabe. I was going to make it, but I decided to pass on it. I bet it was good.
ReplyDeleteHow easy is that? I will make this for sure! Your Sriracha Ranch dip with Okra was a huge hit at our Fish Fry the other night! What would I do without that magnificent hot sauce?
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked it...I could eat that sauce on anything.
DeleteOh ****ing great, now I have mayonnaise all over my ass.... (ha ha)
ReplyDeleteI've never ever heard of this preparation ever but if you swear by it I'd be lying to say I don't want to try this. My kids love chili cheese coneys so I have to make this. (That's my excuse, I'm doing it for the kids, lol)
PS: Smart move on lining the dish with foil.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't look too bad, my friend! At least you managed to get your subject on focus, unlike others (uhm, meaning myself). And it does sound good. Not for my silhouette, mind you. And my bf would faint by the sheer smell of it, I guess (he's in a get-slim-phase, so I don't have permission to use fat or sugar anywhere... still found some tasty recipes, though). This is what I would currently love to eat, half-hidden in the basement as not to warn him off ;-)) Best to you, and keep up those wieners lol
ReplyDeleteMy mom (and my 87-year old aunt) love hot dogs and I will surprise them with this! AWESOME! (and so easy!)
ReplyDeleteAs mentioned above this would be awesome at a Super Bowl party. Unfortunately all my friends who would eat this we left behind in Denver. How about a variation where you bury the dogs in cheese grits? A little hot sauce and it's party time!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to serve hot dogs! My mom would love these...she's the one who like a Chicago dog or tons of stuff on her hot dog. Me on the other hand have never been a fan of hot dogs of any kind. I do like brats though!
ReplyDeleteThe bread doesn't burn baking for 45 minutes? Wow, this would be a great super bowl party food! I love coney island dogs.
ReplyDeleteMimi, The bread actually gets soft...I think it's because of the mayo.
