Chili Beef for Hotdogs or Chili Mac or Chili 3,4, 5 Way

Submitted by Margie99

"We make this for Chili Mac or Chili 4 way with cheese and onions over spaghetti noodles. I have searched the internet for this and finally saw it on the CBS morning show. It was given as a recipe for chili dogs and that sounds great too. I imagine the leftovers would freeze well."

 

• Ready In: 2hrs 40mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 10

ingredients

• 2 lbs lean ground beef
• 1 onion, peeled and grated
• 1 (12 ounce) can tomato paste
• 1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 2 cups water
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar

directions

1. Combine beef, onion, tomato paste and sauce, water, sugar, chili powder garlic salt, salt and pepper in a large pot or dutch oven. Mix until all ingredients are combined. Add bay leaf. Cover and simmer on medium low heat for 2 hours. Stir in the vinegar and cook for another 30 minutes.
2. To make Chili Mac: plate some cooked spaghetti noodles, top with a couple of tablespoons of catsup, chili beef, shredded cheese, chopped, raw onions and parmesan cheese. I have heard that Steak and Shake uses a sort of spiced up catsup- adding worchestershire sauce to catsup.

This works good for making chili dogs without having beans in it. I made a half recipe. Made for newest tag.
