Hot and spicy, good and tasty! Summer time and Chili Dogs...What more can I say? This chili is a 1st Place (2010) and 2nd place (2012) winner at my local Chili Cook Off.The overnight refrigeration is key to making this recipe perfect! It must be done. The recipe itself isn't too complex, just prep everything and measure everything before you begin. The only part that is hard is waiting overnight to eat it! Enjoy!
