Ingredients
2 strips bacon, diced
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
3 tablespoons chipotle hot sauce, plus more for serving (optional)
Vegetable oil, for the grill
4 foot-long hot dogs
4 soft hoagie rolls, split open
4 ounces pepper jack cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
Sliced scallions and/or sour cream for topping (optional)
Directions
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until slightly crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion, chili powder and cumin and cook until the onion is soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in the ketchup and cook until it is slightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the beans, tomatoes, hot sauce and 1 cup water, cover and bring to a boil. Uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium and brush with vegetable oil. Grill the hot dogs until marked, turning, about 10 minutes. Toast the rolls on the grill, if desired.
- Sprinkle the inside of each roll with cheese, then add a hot dog, some of the bean mixture and more cheese. Top with scallions, sour cream and/or hot sauce, if desired.
