How to Make Hot Dog Chili Sliders

1

Prep the Hot Dogs and Buns
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Split the hot dog buns in half, keeping them attached at the base so they form a connected sheet. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet or casserole dish.

2

Assemble the Sliders
Spread a thin layer of mayo inside each bun. Spoon some Blue Runner Four Bean Chili Starter into the bun, then nestle in your split hot dog. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.

3

Layer the Flavor
Add another spoonful of chili on top of each hot dog, sprinkle with One Pot Momma Trinity Seasoning, and finish with a generous layer of cheese.

4

Bake Until Melty and Golden
Bake uncovered for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the buns are lightly toasted.

Commonly Asked Questions

Can I use a different chili brand?

Yes! Any thick chili will work, but Blue Runner’s Four Bean Chili Starter adds great texture and depth.

What kind of cheese works best?

Sharp cheddar melts beautifully, but Monterey Jack or a Tex-Mex blend also taste great.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Assemble everything a few hours ahead, then bake right before serving for the freshest results.
