ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1⁄2 lb ground pork
- 6 cups water
- 1⁄4 cup cornstarch
- 1⁄2 cup Wondra Flour (see below)
- 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
- 1⁄3 cup chili powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
- 3 tablespoons dried onion flakes
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
directions
- In a large size Dutch oven or large size deep sauce pan, brown ground beef and ground pork over medium heat, making sure that the meat is well crumbled.
- When the meat is completely browned cover saucepan and turn heat to low.
- After 5 minutes, remove the ground meat from the heat and drain off most of the fat.
- Keep some of the fat in the pan for flavor, (about 2 to 3 tablespoons).
- While the meat is still off the heat, add water and the cornstarch in a medium size mixing bowl.
- Whisk the cornstarch thoroughly as it's added until it's dissolved into the water.
- Now add the Wondra flour to the water mix and whisk until all is dissolved.
- Add water mixture to the pan of meat.
- Return the pan to the burner over medium heat and add the remaining ingredients.
- Bring mixture to a boil stirring often to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- When chili begins to boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 40 minutes uncovered.
- When chili is done it will be thicker and darker.
- NOTE: Wondra flour is a finely-ground quick-mixing flour used in sauces and gravies.
- It is made by Gold Medal and can usually be found in the baking aisle next to the other flour.
- Perfect chili for hot dogs!
- Makes about 8 cups (16-1/2 cup) servings.
- Cook's Note: This recipe can be cut in half or doubled.

This recipe is almost exactly like firemandave's version, even down to some of the same wording in the instructions. What a strange coincidence. LOL http://www.food.com/recipe/wienerschnitzel-chili-as-close-as-you-will-find-466215 I'll have to give your adaptation a try and see how it compares to his. I really like his recipe and so does my family. We don't have wienerschnitzel where I live, but we've visited them in other states and their chili-dogs are amazing! :) I can't give any stars yet because I haven't tried your adaptation, but when I do I'll come back and rate it. :)
