Chili-Slaw Dog

I don't like condiments and I am not an adventurous eater.  Truly....I don't even like mayonnaise on my BLTs.  That is not to say that I don't like all different kinds of food, I just don't see the point in mixing them all up.  I know,  I know they all get mixed in my stomach, but fortunately you don't "often" taste the contents of your stomach ( that grossed me out a little typing it).  I just don't understand this whole fusion thing, I'm sorry country-fried squid with cheese sauce sounds like a terrible pregnancy craving. 

Anyway...I like my foods plain.  I don't need butter or cheese to eat broccoli, just give me the broccoli.  You get the idea.   So imagine my surprise when I saw on TV a hot dog with cole slaw and chili, and my first response was....hmm I bet that is good.  Most surprising because I REALLY don't like cole slaw. I did some basic tests first to see if I was dreaming...no.  Then I checked to see if I was under alien mind control...too soon to tell.  So what did I do?  Well as I was making a trip to the commissary anyway...I got all the stuff for a chili-slaw dog. 

Chief made one up for himself, and I figured I would try one bite, hate it, then he would eat the rest then I would have a plain (burnt...because hot dogs must be burnt!) hot dog.  The chili-slaw dog was amazing.   I ate the whole thing  AND there was mustard on it....mustard is worst of all condiments.                         


I am also thinking that cole slaw on a barbecued pulled-pork sandwich would also be good.....what is happening to me?  Darn aliens.

Fortunetly I am not so inept that I am unable to make chili myself, but since I thought I might chicken-out if I waited too long, this chili came from a can....and the cole slaw came from the deli...add a hot dog, bun, chopped onion, and mustard...presto: Chili slaw dog.
