\u2764\ufe0f Why You\u2019ll Love This Recipe: <\/strong>This hot dog chili is saucy and flavored with mustard, chili powder, cumin, and garlic for a complex flavor that compliments classic American hot dogs. It\u2019s an ideal party food for barbecues and picnics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recipe originally came from a blog reader, Connie. She made the chili with dried beans, but we\u2019ve adapted the recipe a bit to make it even faster with canned beans. The chili is every bit as flavorful and saucy. This is truly perfect for summer. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Update:<\/em><\/strong> I\u2019ve updated this recipe with new tips to make it seamless in newer pressure cooker models and to use canned beans instead of dried. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make Instant Pot Chili Dog Sauce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

This Instant Pot Hot Dog Chili recipe<\/strong> will work in any brand of electric pressure cooker, including the Instant Pot<\/a>, Ninja Foodi<\/a>, or Power Pressure Cooker XL<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

In addition to using canned beans instead of dried, we also like to brown the ground beef for the chili before pressure cooking. This step takes just a few minutes but adds a rich, caramelized flavor to the hot dog sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then before pressure cooking, mash the pinto beans and ground beef in the beef stock. This builds the right texture in your chili that\u2019s thick and creamy, not too watery. A good quality potato masher works wonders here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then the chili only needs to pressure cook for five minutes. The result is a wonderfully robust flavor and sauce for hot dogs. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Can I Use Dried Beans?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely! An Instant Pot is one of the best ways to cook dried beans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make the dried beans for this recipe<\/strong>, combine 2 cups of dry pinto beans with 6 cups of water. (Note that you\u2019ll have more than enough beans for this recipe.) Cook the beans at High Pressure for 40 minutes, then use a natural pressure release. The beans will be perfectly tender without falling apart. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you only want to cook the beans for your chili, use 2\/3 of a cup of dried beans and cover them with water by 2 inches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
