Notes
Tiffy’s Tips
- I use Applegate’s “Great Organic Hot Dog” which is free of preservatives and made with organic, grass-fed beef. They also offer turkey and chicken hot dogs, so there’s an option for everyone!
- Any chili recipe works, I personally prefer my homemade chili recipe! For the sake of time and ease you can opt for a pre-made store bought chili.
- I highly recommend using parchment paper sheets or aluminum foil sheets to line your pan. The pre-cut sheets are so convenient and make clean-up a breeze.
