“Just like a chili hotdog but with a thin hamburger patty instead! In Des Moines, IA, this is also known as Hamburger Coney Style from Jim's Coney Island.” - by Curly Sue

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced onion
salt and pepper to taste
1 (15 ounce) can chili without beans
6 hot dog buns
6 slices American cheese
3 dill pickles, cut into strips lengthwise

Original recipe yields 6 servings

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
Mix the ground beef, Worcestershire, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper. Shape into 6 thin patties. Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 3 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Place the cheese slices on the burgers during the last minute of cooking.
Heat the can of chili in a saucepan until hot. Cut the hamburger patties in half and put two halves into a hot dog bun, side by side. Place the pickles in the buns and top with chili.

"I've never had chili burgers before but made these for a neighborhood cookout. I only had hamburger buns, so I used those, but think they would probably taste the same. I don't really like canned chil..." See morei, so I threw a pot together with Chili-O seasoning packet and it came out very good. I also added some Montreal Steak Seasoning to the ground beef, since I use that on just about everything and love the flavor. I offered the recipe with chili on the side, but almost everyone put the chili on their burger and raved about the taste. I might try this at some point in the future with sloppy joes as the topping. Great idea!"

"What a great idea! An easier and little less messy way to eat a chili cheeseburger. I made the burgers flat sticks shapes so they would fit the bun and not require cutting. I used Wolf brand chili bec..." See moreause it's my hubs' favorite canned brand but any canned chili would be fine. I will definitely make these again."
