Best Way to Make a Hot Dog 🔥

Ingredients

• 1 lb Jimmy Dean Sausage (fully cooked, crumbled)
• 1 can Hormel Chili (no beans) (15‑oz can, drained)
• 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Monterey Jack Cheese (shredded)
• 1/2 cup White Onion (finely diced)
• 1/4 cup Green Onion (thinly sliced)
• 1 package Refrigerated Biscuit Dough (8 biscuits, thawed)
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil (for brushing)
• 1/2 tsp Salt (optional, to taste)
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

   Set the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 400°F

2. Prepare Filling

   In a skillet over medium heat, crumble the Jimmy Dean sausage and cook for 3‑4 minutes. Add the drained Hormel chili, diced white onion, and sliced green onion. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes until the onions soften. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

   Time: PT7M

3. Mix Cheeses

   In a mixing bowl combine shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses with a pinch of salt and pepper.

   Time: PT3M

4. Form Biscuit Pockets

   Lay out the biscuit dough pieces on a lightly floured surface. Using a sharp knife, make a shallow cut about 1/16 inch deep down the center of each biscuit, creating a pocket without cutting all the way through.

   Time: PT5M

5. Stuff the Bites

   Spoon a generous amount of the sausage‑chili mixture into each biscuit pocket, then top with a spoonful of the cheese blend. Press the edges together lightly to seal.

   Time: PT5M

6. Bake

   Brush the tops of the stuffed biscuits with olive oil. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 18‑20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

   Time: PT20M

   Temperature: 400°F

7. Cool and Serve

   Remove from the oven and let the bites rest for 3 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra sliced green onion if desired.

   Time: PT3M
