I had a Uncle Roger experience watching that lol.

She may have learned the idea of that in Texas, but those hot dogs would have been all-beef, that chili would have been Wolf Brand Chili (no beans!), and the ketchup would have been omitted.

True dat!

Don't doit! Obviously a smoke screen to put catsup on hotdogs. Ohh, the humanity.

Watching the video I wasn’t too sure until the Tater Tots came out. Then I was sold on the idea…

So hotdish finally made it all the way down by Texas? Looks like good eating you betcha.

[Jfrosty27]

Weenies and beans! (Or chili) as you prefer) Yup. A staple up here. NO ketchup though. Always a winner.

Looks really good! But don't think it's very Texas-ish from my South Texas perspective

[Panhead John]

Yep. That’s not really a thing down here, never heard of it.

Panhead John if you never heard of it, may I suggest rewatching the YouTube video?

[Panhead John]

I stopped watching after she poured the chili with beans. 😛

Yeah, I'd admit, even being north of the Mason Dixon line, I'd skip the beans. Also, I save the hotdogs for the kids. I'd definitely use Lil' Smokies, skip the catsup, use BBQ sauce instead, and not worry too much about chili sauce.

If I did use this recipe, it would be yellow mustard instead of catsup.

Yeah, 20+ years living in Texas, I have never seen a casserole like that, but that doesn't mean somebody there wasn't making it.
Doesn't look remotely appetizing to me, but I bet a lot of kids would eat that up at a party.

Maybe it was the invention of a midwestern transplant who decided the Tater Tot Hotdish needed hotdogs with chili in it. 🤔
