GREEK CHILI DOG SAUCE | Hot Dog Chili Recipe

I remember getting Greek Chili Dog Sauce as a kid from a local hot dog stand. While I didn’t know that’s what kind it was at the time, years later I found this recipe and realized that’s what it was. It’s so easy to make. You put the ground beef in a pot with some water, broth and a bunch of spices. Bring it to a boil and simmer it for a couple hours on the stove. Regardless on if you call it Chili or Sauce, this recipe, in my opinion is the best!
Ingredients:
1 lb Hamburger
4 Cups Water
2 Cups Chicken Broth
1 6 oz Can Tomato Paste
1 Tbs Dried Onions
1 Tbs Chili Powder
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Dried Parsley
½ tsp Cayenne Pepper (Use Less for a Milder Sauce)
Instructions:
1. In a large pot add water, chicken broth, and tomato paste.
2. Place the hamburger in the liquid and break it down so there are no chunks.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well
4. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 2 hours or until the mixture becomes thick, Stirring often.
5. Once cooked, use on hot dogs
6. Leftovers can be placed into a container and frozen.

I'm from south carolina. Greenville to be exact. We have a restaurant called the clock. Been here for many years. The greek families own them
Greek hotdog chili is the best .
I love it on a hamburger!!! On my fries. I'd eat it on anything. The family will not tell their recipe
I have made my own, pretty close.
This looks amazing

Love a good chili. I'd circle the chili guy twice but that's all. I now date his daughter. Boy is it worth it.

[@ynot2nite1]

why is it called greek chili, I don't see anything in the recipe that makes it greek ? I have always made my chili like this with beans,and I have made it without beans

[@SavorySaver]

While I am not positive about why it is called that, this short article has a good explanation about it most likely coming from Greek Immigrants. www.mashed.com/1617309/greek-hot-dog-sauce-origins/ Thank you for watching, I hope this helps.

Beef broth not chicken broth

[@SavorySaver]

Beef Broth works as well. This recipe works great for whatever broth the cook has in the cabinet. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts.

[@Judy-oi6ux]

Its beef broth or roast broth drippings.. not water or chicken .. this isnt greek it would be bland with cinnamon in it ,... Where is corn stratch...didnt see that either this isnt greek ..
