Serving: 24
Ingredients
- 1kg regular beef mince
- 2/3 cup liquid beef stock
- 140g can concentrated tomato paste
- 1/3 cup of tomato sauce/ketchup
- 1 cup tomato Passata (see notes below)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tsp ground chilli
To Serve
- Hot Dog buns
- Hot Dog wieners
- Grated tasty cheese
Instructions
- Add mince and liquid stock to slow cooker
- Using a plastic potato masher (so as not to scratch your bowl) mash the two together - this makes a nice fine mince in your final dish to serve on your hot dogs. If you don't have a plastic potato masher then do this step in another dish then add to slow cooker
- Add remaining ingredients to your slow cooker and stir well to combine
- Cook on low for 5hrs
- Pour chilli through a fine strainer to remove liquid and leave you with just the chilli meat
To Serve
- Split hot dog buns, top with warm wieners then 2-3 Tbsp of chilli over each dog
- Sprinkle generously with grated cheese
Notes
- While the chilli in the slow cooker had some heat to it, once drained of liquid I found it suitable for our children and only mildly chilli. If you are concerned though you could always reduce your chilli powder to 1.5tsp instead.
- Passata is uncooked, crushed and sieved tomatoes. Usually, high quality ripe tomatoes are used for passata, resulting in a well flavoured tomato base that is generally superior to standard canned tomatoes.
- Served enough for 24 chilli dogs - we used half of the mix for 12 dogs and froze the other half for another night.
