The Carolina-style Dog
If a hot dog or burger is "Carolina-style," that means it's going to have mustard, chili, coleslaw, and sometimes onions. A Carolina-style dog is exactly that. I don't have much more to say.
Five things I know about the Carolinas off the top of my head right now:
- funky red slaw and yellow bbq sauce (but the yellow sauce is racist?)
- bathroom bill ground zero
- dollar signs is from charlotte
- Gullah culture (super cool)
- red rice and perloo
The Hot Dog Chili
WHAT YOU NEED
- 250g ground beef
- 100g minced yellow onion
- 2 cloves finely minced garlic
- 150ml water
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp yellow mustard
- 1 tsp white vinegar 5%
- 1/2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp brown sugar
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1/8 tsp ground cumin
- 1/8 tsp onion powder
- seasoned salt and black pepper to taste
- red hot sauce to taste
- neutral oil

HOW-TO
- Heat a pot or pan over medium heat and add oil.
- Add the beef and onions. Let fry until the meat and onions are both browned. Break it up in tiny pieces.
- Add the garlic, then season to taste with seasoned salt and black pepper.
- Mix in the sugar and spices, then pour in the water. Bring to a simmer and stir in all of the remaining ingredients.
- Let everything cook down. You want the sauce to be nice and thick, not too runny. Give it a taste and adjust the seasoning before you serve it.
The Carolina-style Dog

HOW-TO
- Cook up your dog how you like it. I just brown it in a pan.
- Warm up your bun how you like (toaster oven works great), and get the chili nice and hot, too.
- Lay your cooked dog in the bun, then squirt mustard down the length of it.
- Top the dog with the minced onion, chili, and slaw (in that order).
