Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In each hot dog, make crosswise diagonal cuts 1/2 inch apart and 1/4 inch deep.
• Carefully brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Place hot dogs on grill rack over medium heat. Grill uncovered 15 to 20 minutes, turning frequently and brushing occasionally with butter, until hot dogs are hot and slashes begin to open.
• Remove label and top from can of chili. Add opened can of chili to grill for last 10 minutes of grilling, stirring occasionally, until hot. Serve hot dogs on buns with chili, cheese and onion.

CONEY ISLAND HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, water, 1/2 cup diced onion, ketchup, butter, garlic, chili powder, salt, black pepper, cumin, celery salt, and cayenne pepper together in a pot. Mix with a potato masher or spatula over medium-high heat until mixture has a finely ground consistency and begins to bubble, about 10 minutes.
• Bring beef mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens and reduces, about 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook hot dogs in boiling water until heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange hot dog buns on a baking sheet.
• Cook buns in the preheated oven until soft and warm, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place 1 bun on a plate. Place a hot dog in the bun and top with meat sauce. Drizzle yellow mustard and diced onion over the meat sauce. Repeat with remaining hot dogs.
