Chef's Notes
Treat this chili sauce with the respect of a slow-cooked French ragout. Ground beef can be stubborn, so break it down early into the tiniest crumbles possible so it hugs the hot dog seamlessly.
Pro Tip
Let the chili rest off the heat for ten minutes before serving. This brief pause allows the gelatin from the beef broth and tomatoes to settle, giving you a thick, clinging texture instead of a watery mess.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Turning the stove up to high during the final hour to speed things up, only to walk away and return to a scorched, carbonized crust of beef stuck to the bottom of your favorite skillet.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
They call it 'sauce' as if it’s fancy, but we all know it’s just the brave way to hide a mediocre sausage.
The Culinary Science
Simmering tomatoes and beef broth together for an extended period breaks down glutamates naturally present in the ingredients, creating a massive explosion of savory umami flavor.
