For Hot Dogs:

Serves: 8

Directions

Step 1

In small bowl, mix together chili powder, allspice, cinnamon, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper flakes, salt, ground black pepper, and bay leaf.

Step 2

In separate bowl, mix tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, vinegar, and water.

Step 3

In a 2-quart sauce pan, melt shortening over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, then add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add spice mix from step 1 and cook for 1 minute. Be careful they do not burn.

Step 4

Add wet ingredients and mix thoroughly. Bring to boil and reduce heat to simmer. Crumble beef into simmering liquid. Simmer on low for about 30 minutes with lid on.

Step 5

Remove lid and discard the bay leaf. Cook again until thickened, about 20 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, cook hot dogs over medium heat 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned, turning occasionally.

Step 7

Once cooked, place each hot dog in a Martin’s Long Potato Roll. Then, top with about 1/8 cup chili, mustard, a few onions, and a generous handful of cheddar cheese.

Step 8

Serve warm.
