Loaded Chili Dogs

Directions

1. Grill the Dogs

   Preheat your grill (or grill pan) over medium heat.

   Grill plant-based hot dogs for 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through with char marks.

2. Toast the Buns

   Lightly brush the inside of the hot dog buns with olive oil, either after or before putting them on the grill.

   Place them on the grill for 1–2 minutes, until toasty and golden.

3. Heat the Chili

   While grilling, warm Tad’s Dad’s Chili in a saucepan over medium heat until hot and bubbly.

4. Assemble the Dogs

   Place grilled hot dogs in the toasted buns.

   Spoon warm chili generously over each dog.

   Sprinkle with vegan cheese, onions, and jalapeños if using.

   Drizzle with mustard or vegan mayo for extra flavor.

5. Serve & Savor

   Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately.

   Pair with chips, slaw, or grilled corn for the ultimate BBQ plate!
