Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
Add the ground beef to the pan and cook until browned, breaking it up into small crumbles with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Push the beef to one side of the pan and add the chopped onion to the other. Sauté the onion until softened, approximately 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste to the pan and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to enhance its flavor.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth, stirring to combine.
Stir in chili powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, cayenne pepper (if using), Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
Just before serving, stir in the apple cider vinegar to brighten the flavors.
Serve the Hound Dog Chili Sauce warm over hot dogs, burgers, or your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
