Hot Dog Chili
Favicon

Hot Dog Chili

This Southern Style Hot Dog Chili is made with ground beef‚ garlic‚ beef broth‚ tomato sauce and seasonings (no beans!) So much flavor! SOUTHERN STYLE HOT DOG CHILI RECIPE For me‚ the key is to a great homemade Hot Dog Chili recipe is that it won’t overtake the taste of the hot dog (cause I wanna taste that too). Plus‚ there are so many topping options for everybody to choose from when assembling their own Chili Dog‚ it makes it super easy to customize exactly how you like it. Serving Hot Dog Chili is a great idea at potlucks‚ parties‚ get togethers‚ backyard BBQ’s or just because. Just keep it on the warm setting in the slow cooker and let everyone serve themselves! FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ’S) What’s the difference between hot dog chili and regular chili? Hot dog chili is much thicker than soup chili. It also usually doesn’t contain beans. The meat in hot dog chili is also very finely ground whereas in soup chili‚ it is chunkier. Also‚ hot dog chili is usually made with tomato paste rather than tomatoes. Now obviously‚ this can vary by region and people’s personal preferences. What is Hot Dog Chili made of? It’s made of beef‚ onion‚ garlic‚ and a bunch of herbs and spices. Again‚ this can vary by region but this is how we do it. What else can I make with hot dog chili? This chili wonderful served on tater tots and french fries. Throw some melted cheddar cheese on top and it’s over-the-top delicious. I also really love this chili on baked potatoes! Note: if you want the full Appalachian chili dog experience‚ you must add some Cole Slaw and a little Chow Chow on top of the chili! Can I make this in the Slow Cooker? I don’t recommend it. It only takes a few minutes to make on the stovetop‚ so what’s the point in dragging out the slow cooker. Besides‚ either way you make it‚ you’ll have to brown the beef first‚ so adding the slow cooker step just means more dishes. However‚ you can certainly add it to the slow cooker to keep warm if serving for guests. Can I make this chili spicy? Yup. If you like spicy Hot Dog Chili‚ feel free to add some diced jalapenos or diced green chiles to the mix. Can I make this a little more saucy? Sure‚ if you think this Hot Dog Chili is a little too thick for you‚ you can add a bit more water‚ chicken broth‚ or beef broth to thin it out. Just add a little at a time until you get it to your desired thinness. Can I make this ahead of time? Sure. Make your chili for the hot dogs and keep it warm in a slow cooker. When ready to serve‚ you can do so from there. Or make it‚ then pop it in a covered container in the refrigerator and re-heat when ready. Why add cornmeal to hot dog chili? This acts a thickener. You can leave it out if you want a thinner chili. How do you store leftover hot dog chili? Put it in a covered container in the refrigerator and it will keep up to 5 days. You can also freeze leftover chili. Put it in a freezer-safe ziploc bag. Remove as much air as possible. Chili will keep in the freezer up to 3 months. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) HOW TO MAKE HOT DOG CHILI Put a couple tablespoons of vegetable oil in medium sauce pan. On medium-high heat‚ saute onion until translucent‚ then add garlic. Stir for about a minute‚ then add ground beef. As beef begins to brown‚ use a potato masher to grind up the beef into small bits. Once brown‚ add in the rest of the ingredients (if your beef produced a lot of grease‚ you may want to strain some of that out first before adding the rest of the ingredients.) Give it all a good stir to combine then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. Do a taste test at this point to see if it has enough salt. If you want‚ you can transfer the chili over to a Crock Pot and put it on the keep warm setting. CRAVING MORE RECIPES?

Polar vortex is 'spinning backwards' above Arctic after major reversal event

Earlier this month‚ a sudden atmospheric warming event caused the Arctic's polar vortex to reverse its trajectory. The swirling ring of cold air is now spinning in the wrong direction‚ which has triggered a record-breaking "ozone spike" and could impact global weather patterns.

Future quantum computers will be no match for 'space encryption' that uses light to beam data around — with the 1st satellite launching in 2025

Quantum computers will break encryption one day. But converting data into light particles and beaming them around using thousands of satellites might be one way around this problem.

‘Married… With Children’ Cast Then And Now 2024

UPDATED 3/27/2024 In the immortal words of Al Bundy‚ “Let’s rock.“ Everyone knew when Married… with Children was on‚ the better to catch every episode. Fans especially knew it when they heard the intro to “Love and Marriage” performed by the legendary Frank Sinatra. He wasn’t an official member of the Married… with Children cast‚ but the music was definitely a character in and of itself. This show was hysterical. It revolved around the simple premise of letting this ruthlessly honest family exist and knock each other down a peg each week. Just thinking of Al’s facial expressions today can inspire laughter. And while it has since become one of the most popular shows of the 90s‚ it wasn’t always like that‚ because FOX was just starting up and didn’t have the affiliate base of the Big Three to even reach the entire country. However‚ after completing its 6th season‚ the show reached peak popularity with a #29 Nielsen rating‚ in comparison to #142 for Season one. 11 seasons later we still love the Bundys and their crazy‚ politically incorrect adventures. All this to say it’s time to revisit the Chicago suburbs to see what the Bundy cast is up to today. Alright‚ let’s boogie. Ed O’Neill (Al Bundy) Ed O’Neill was part of both the Married… with Children and Modern Family casts‚ two giants in sitcom history / Everett Collection “Oh mighty one in the skies who created the mountains‚ the sea and beer..” Could they have created a funnier lead pop than Al Bundy? He sells women’s shoes‚ and not even the pretty ones. But as Al fondly remembers his high school glory days‚ Ed O’Neill beautifully grounds this sitcom without totally stealing scenes. Instead‚ he is a perfect complement to his talented familial castmates. O’Neill would fulfill fan requests who wanted to see the Married with Children cast recreate famous moments‚ and make special occasion phone calls as Al Bundy on the condition that he could call them collect‚ in congruence with Al’s cheapskate nature. O’Neill today / ImageCollect RELATED: ‘Married…With Children’ Turns 33 This Month‚ Celebrate By Rewatching The Premiere Episode Ed was also a star football player‚ getting signed after college to the Pittsburgh Steelers‚ but being cut in training camp‚ unfortunately having to compete with fellow rookie defensive lineman “Mean Joe” Greene. Hopefully‚ he tossed Ed his jersey on his way out too. After quitting substitute teaching‚ O’Neill’s breakout role came in 1980 as a police detective in Al Pacino’s Cruising. In the early ‘90s he had great success with some family-friendly flicks‚ like 1991’s Dutch’s and then the pee wee football comedy Little Giants‚ where he’s the rival coach against Rick Moranis. And in 2009 he once again joined the television hall of fame with a new character‚ Jay Pritchett in the long-running‚ happier family sitcom‚ Modern Family. Most recently‚ he appeared in the 2020 film The Last Shift and on television in a 2019 episode of Weird City. Today he’s 77 years old‚ and has two daughters with his actress wife‚ Catherine Rusoff. Katey Sagal (Peggy Bundy) Katey Sagal‚ affiliated with the Bundys and the Conners / Everett Collection / ImageCollect Peggy is Al’s wife with plenty of quirks of her own. She gives Al some appropriate nags‚ getting on him about his job‚ hygiene‚ and even his poor sexual abilities. And she did it with style too‚ of which she actually created. Sagal made the choice that Peggy Bundy would dress in 60s-inspired clothing to parody the typical housewife of that time. For her audition‚ she brought her own red bouffant wig‚ and when she won the role‚ producers approved the image for the show. She definitely made the role her own. Sagal is still hard at work today / ImageCollect Katey Sagal’s mother was a singer‚ and her father a television director who sadly suffered an accidental death on the set of the miniseries he was directing‚ World War III in 1981. The TV goliath Norman Lear also happens to be her godfather‚ and he actually introduced her parents. Sagal’s career began in 1973 when she worked as a backing vocalist for various singers‚ including Bob Dylan and Tanya Tucker. Then she became a member of Bette Midler’s backup group The Harlettes. And she’s even released three of her own albums‚ most recently in 2013. Sagal’s breakout role was a newspaper columnist in the series Mary starring Mary Tyler Moore. This role actually helped her transition into the cast of Married… with Children. In 1998‚ Simpson’s Creator‚ Matt Groening‚ chose her to be the spaceship captain‚ Leela‚ in his new cartoon comedy‚ Futurama. Then she teamed up with John Ritter for the sitcom‚ 8 Simple Rules in the early 2000s‚ before Ritter himself passed away suddenly. In 2008 she once again obtained a starring TV role‚ this time on FX’s Sons of Anarchy. Little nepotism here‚ as she married the show’s creator‚ Kurt Sutter‚ back in 2004. But no one’s complaining; Sagal owned that role. Most recently she replaced Roseanne as Dan Connor’s new wife on The Conners‚ and in 2022 appeared in the film Torn Hearts and in two episodes of Tell Me Lies. Today Sagal is 70 years old and right on cue‚ we recently saw her in a starring role in the show‚ Rebel‚ from the creators of Grey’s Anatomy‚ she continues voicing on Futurama until 2023‚ and is currently filming for a project called Torn Hearts. Amanda Bearse (Marcy Rhoades) Al and Marcy still butt heads outside the Married… with Children cast / Everett Collection / ImageCollect Marcy Rhoades is the Bundys’ next-door neighbor who has it out for Al‚ even though she’s Peggy’s best friend. Fans loved seeing her go after Al; she often protested Al’s National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood group – with her own group‚ Feminists Against Neanderthal Guys. Jump to present day with the talented Amanda Bearse / ImageCollect On the set of Married… with Children‚ she wasn’t just a cast member. In addition to playing Marcy‚ Bearse also directed a whopping 31 episodes‚ highlighted by season 11’s “The Stepford Peg‚” Bearse‚ now 65‚ broke onto our radar with a starring role in 1985’s cult classic Fright Night. She hadn’t acted since 2013 before returning for the cinema blockbuster‚ Sky Sharks in 2020. Bearse is in her early 60s‚ and married her partner Carrie in 2010. Ed O’Neill and David Faustino were the only original cast members not invited to her wedding because Bearse was afraid they would laugh at the sight of “two women in tuxedos‚” which during a 2013 interview O’Neill admitted he would. Can’t take the Al out of Bundy. David Faustino (Bud Bundy) David Faustino then and now / Everett Collection / ImageCollect Bud is great as the creepy little bro from hell archetype‚ whom Kelly just loves to beat up on because he’s also the loser brother who has zero luck with the ladies and is really awkward. His younger brother Michael made many guest appearances on Married… with Children‚ including a Season 11 episode David co-wrote‚ entitled “T*R*A*S*H.” Actor‚ songwriter‚ and voice actor David Faustino / ImageCollect Faustino began acting in 1980 with an episode of Little House on the Prairie. Much of Faustino’s post-Bundy jobs have been either guest-starring as Bud Bundy‚ or as David Faustino himself. He hasn’t a great live-action job‚ but pivoted well‚ becoming quite successful with voice acting. Most recently he played a villain in 28 episodes of the How to Train Your Dragon spinoff series‚ Dragons: Race to the Edge. Did you know Faustino was also in the rap game under the name D’ Lil. His single called “I Told Ya” got some airplay in 1992. Then in 2008‚ he co-wrote an electronica album titled Hollowdreams. In November 2015‚ his girlfriend Lindsay Bronson gave birth to their daughter‚ and Faustino‚ who is currently 50 years old‚ is now working on a new cartoon called Hollywould. Ted McGinley (Jefferson D’Arcy) Mr. Jefferson D’Arcy then and now / Everett Collection / ImageCollect Jefferson marries Marcy for financial purposes as since he’s young‚ unemployed‚ and lazy‚ But at least Marcy gets herself a young boytoy. Additionally‚ Jefferson gives Al a nice buddy next door. Ted McGinley today / ImageCollect Ted McGinley got started with a bang in 1980‚ as Roger Phillips‚ the nephew of the Cunninghams on Happy Days for the final few seasons. And then he joined the hit primetime soap Dynasty as Clay Fallmont‚ where he and other warring families struck gold‚ or rather‚ struck oil. Besides his part in the Married… with Children cast‚ pop culture also knows McGinley as the quintessential jock in 1984’s Revenge of the Nerds. He fit so perfectly because he kinda was that guy in college. At USC‚ McGinley was captain and two-time MVP of the water polo team. McGinley married actress Gigi Rice in 1991 and the pair have two sons. Today he’s 65‚ and still very active‚ also voice acting like Faustino‚ as McGinley was in 54 episodes of Transformers‚ Robots in Disguise ‚ and recently wrapped on appearing in the show Keeping Up with the Joneses in 2021. Christina Applegate (Kelly Bundy) Christina Applegate as Kelly Bundy and today / Everett Collection / Instagram Kelly Bundy is the stereotypical ditsy blonde‚ into fashion and pushing her father’s buttons‚ but Al deserves it and serves it right back. The back and forth between these two was possibly the best in the show. And Applegate was stellar‚ and not bad to look at either. Certainly becoming one of the biggest attractions to this sitcom.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Christina Applegate (@1capplegate) Christina Applegate was born into show business and she accompanied her actress mother Nancy Priddy on Days of Our Lives before she could even walk. Nancy even joined the Married… with Children cast for an episode in season four. At just 12 years old‚ she played young Grace Kelly in the television biopic titled after actress-turned-princess‚ while Cheryl Ladd played an aged Grace. In 1991‚ she had her biggest film role to date‚ taking care of her siblings in‚ Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead. Then in the early 2000s‚ her titular role in the series Jesse concluded after just 2 seasons‚ and she went back to the big screen‚ co-starring with Cameron Diaz in The Sweetest Thing. Then she ended up becoming Veronica Corningstone in the great comedy Anchorman‚ She and Will Ferrel were fantastic together. She most recently starred in three seasons of the Netflix series Dead to Me and if you’re looking for something new to watch‚ give it a go. In 2008‚ she was diagnosed with an early stage of breast cancer and chose to undergo a double mastectomy‚ as her mother is also a breast cancer survivor and Applegate suffers from a genetic trait that easily triggers the cancer. Surely a tough time‚ we’re so glad today she’s 52 years old and currently cancer-free and still delivering some wonderful projects for us to enjoy‚ however‚ she did recently announce that she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. We wish her well! Click for next Article The post ‘Married… With Children’ Cast Then And Now 2024 appeared first on DoYouRemember? - The Home of Nostalgia. Author‚ Dana Daly

Where to Buy $148* at Amazon *at time of reviewing The Survival Seeds We Compared Our research narrowed the field down to several types and brands of survival seed kits and vaults that we compared: Open Seed‚ Survival Essentials‚ Heaven’s Harvest‚ Seed Armory‚ Legacy Food Storage‚ and more. You can see our full list of review criteria below in the What to Look For section‚ with an explanation for each. We considered a wide range of seeds but stuck with the bulk-packaged ‘seed vaults’ for the sake of simplicity in our review. We’re always looking for new and better supplies‚ so if you have a seed vault that you swear by‚ let us know in the comments. We review most of our tested equipment annually‚ but seeds take a little more time to test. With a little patience‚ we can try to get it in the next roundup round and see if it makes the cut and we can see if it will beat out our top picks. What to Look For The best survival seed kit has several important features to look for: Value Varieties Included Germination Rate Purity Storage When you get the right blend of these‚ you can find a seed kit that will work perfectly with your skillset to get your survival garden started. Below‚ we break down what each of these features means for the packs of seeds that truly set themselves apart. Value: Cost vs. Benefit The amount of money you spend on something like garden seeds shouldn’t blow out your entire budget. There are some massive kits and a little bit of marketing going on out there‚ so don’t get price gouged. Follow your budget and get what makes the most sense for you. You never want to spend too much money on one thing when it comes to prepping and survival. It’s better to diversify your prepping focus and budget to make sure you are covered for a wide range of scenarios. Varieties Included A variety of vegetables‚ fruits‚ and herbs are ideal for a survival garden but can be difficult to cultivate depending on your USDA hardiness zone. Different foods provide different types of vitamins‚ minerals‚ calorie content‚ fiber‚ and more. Having a good mix of these is essential for your long-term health. We can’t survive on potatoes alone‚ like Matt Damon in The Martian– he had help from a stash of multivitamins. Garden variety is better than multivitamins but it will cost you more to have a bigger variety in your seed vault. Germination Rate Germination rates in the kits we compared ranged between 60% and 95% depending on the seed type and supplier. The higher‚ the better‚ obviously- since we want the seeds that we work hard to get going to actually grow. Both germination rate and purity are good measures of how efficient your seeds will be. Purity Seed purity is a measure of whether that seed that you planted is actually what the kit says it is. Plenty of weeds‚ grasses‚ and other seeds can get mixed in naturally‚ resulting in a lower purity percentage. When you combine purity percentage and germination rate you get a metric called pure live seed. Pure live seed (PLS) is equal to the product of the purity and germination percentages. So‚ the PLS of a bag of Bermuda grass where purity = 85% and germination = 75% would be 0.85 x 0.75 = 0.64 PLS. The pure live seed of most of our picks is over 0.8 PLS‚ with many vegetables going much higher. Storage Storing seeds in dry environments is crucial to help them avoid fungal contamination and reduced germination. Dry and cold is best for storage- less than 40% humidity and between 35-40°F. The temperature can be hard to maintain without refrigeration‚ but reducing humidity can help. Storing seeds in sealed mylar bags is ideal because it blocks light and humidity extremely well. How to Start a Survival Garden We have it easy now that we can go down to the hardware store and get plants for the garden‚ but starting from seeds can be tough. Especially if they have been in dry storage for a while and have reduced germination rates. You also shouldn’t be just popping seeds into the ground and hoping for the best. With limited resources in both seeds and water‚ survival situations will require you to get the most out of your garden. Scott does a great job talking about garden planning and what you’ll need for survival: Who Needs a Survival Seed Vault? Having fruit‚ vegetable‚ and herb seeds around to make a survival garden (both before and after SHTF events) is a pretty good idea. We suggest that you have a survival seed vault in your: INCH bag We also suggest that you consider adding a seed kit to your: Survival Food Plan and Checklist Home Survival Kit Although storing seeds will lower their germination rate‚ they will still come in handy when you need to grow food to eat. Having enough seeds and a wide variety of them doesn’t have to be a problem in a survival situation‚ and can give you a useful garden well beforehand too. How We Review Products: We research thoroughly before selecting the best products to review. We consult experts in the field for a better understanding of what makes the gear great. Hours on end are spent field testing gear in stressful conditions. We assign performance criteria and impartially rate each tested item. After our review process‚ some of the items reviewed end up in our giveaways. Sources and References All of our experience and the testing we do to determine the best survival seed kit is useless without listing our research sources and references. We leaned on these for the book knowledge that we paired with our hands-on testing and practical prepping experience: Herrmann‚ M. (2015). The Modern Day “Victory Garden”. Procedia Engineering. Volume 118. Pages 647 – 563. (Source) Leng‚ C.‚ et al. (2022). Daily home gardening improved survival for older people with mobility limitations: an 11-year follow-up study in Taiwan.

Volume 331. Issue 10. Pages 796 – 805. (Source) The Final Word Food is always a survival priority. A seed kit or ‘vault’ can help you create your own victory garden now or help you create a sustainable food source during a survival event. Whether you plan to use them right away or keep them in dry storage‚ they are incredibly useful.
