Chili Sauce for Hot Dogs and Burgers

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"Easy to make, and a must have stuffed in the bun with dogs or burgers. Any left overs can be frozen. I freeze in half cup freezer-proof containers, just reheat in the microwave to serve with burgers and hot dogs, also wonderful on top of French fries, then topped with shredded cheddar cheese yum!! This chili sauce is even better if made a day or even days ahead of using. Also the recipe may be cut in half for a smaller amount. All ingredients may be adjusted to suit taste."

husband wanted chili cheese dogs yesterday and I told him I didn't have a recipe - he said uh look at zaar - well lo and behold I find a 5 star recipe by none other than Kittencal and I knew it would be good! Made it exactly as your instructions read and it was delicious!!! thanks for sharing - loved it!

I just made this - followed the recipe so I'd have a bunch to freeze. I'm taking it camping with us this weekend. Can't wait to try it...it smells amazing!

DH loves cheese fries so I followed Kittencal's suggestion and topped crinkle cut fries with this chili sauce. I used about 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper and omitted the tabasco sauce for our taste. I did freeze some for the next time we have hot dogs on the grill which I hope will be soon as this was a great chili sauce! Topped my chili fries with a sprinkle of green onions, loved it!
