Credit for tonight's entry goes to my friend Tom. As I was getting ready to leave the office tonight, he asked me what I was having for dinner tonight. This question had actually been plaguing me all afternoon.If you've been reading the blog this week, you know that I made a big vat of chili on Sunday. I knew I should either eat that up or stick it in the freezer, but I have a great track record so far off not repeating dinners within the same week, so I was hesitant. Tom suggested that I make chili dogs - brilliant!!
Believe it or not, I had never actually cooked a hot dog before, so my husband stuck them on the grill. I know now that I could have just boiled them, but as you know, everything tastes better when grilled!
To stick with this week's All American theme, I probably should have chosen Nathan's Famous Franks. Do hot dogs get anymore American than that? However, I went with Hebrew National. I literally eat about 3 hot dogs a year and I know that HN are tasty - so sorry for not sticking with the program 100%.
We did, however, have some Tillamook Cheddar from Oregon and a nice red wine produced by BV, here in California. I know - wine and chili dogs?
