Definitely a good starter recipe, but I had to add more spices to the chili and some beef stock to thin it out a bit. I added about 2T. of chili powder, 1T. paprika, and 2t. cumin. I also added the hot sauce to the chili and not the hot dogs. Like I said, it's a good starter recipe but definitely needs some tweeking to add more flavor.

Myself and friends really enjoyed this. I don't usually use hot sauce but when I ate the dog I could taste that little extra flavor of the hot sauce and it was great. I took the remainder of the sauce and added a little more chili powder and some chilis and simmered for an hour and it made great tacos.
