Cooking Games – The Perfect Coney


Conies, otherwise known as chili cheese dogs, are a delicious treat to be enjoyed on a cold winter day – or a hot summer day. They are so delicious, it doesn’t matter when you eat them.

To make an authentic coney, you should start by using a good hotdog. You can use a regular one if you like, but using a premium hot dog and bun will give you a premium product.

Pull a bun out of the package and set it aside while the hotdog boils. Heat some chili on the stove or in the microwave and pull shredded cheddar cheese from the refrigerator. When the hotdog is ready, put a line of hot mustard down the hot dog bun if you like mustard and then place the dog in the bun.

Put the bun and dog on a very sturdy plate and carefully spoon chili on top of the hotdog. Sprinkle the concoction with shredded cheese and add a bit of relish if you’d like. Your coney is best served with your choice of chips, although fries work well too as you can use them to scoop up the chili that falls off the hot dog. Enjoy!
