How to Make Chili Cheese Dogs in a Slow Cooker
Cris here!
If you remember, earlier this week we crocked up a ton of hot dogs in our 3-pot party crock (we call her Big Bertha) and we kept the center crock’s contents a secret… shh! Today the secret is out and Mikey made a video of all the cheesy GOODEness (his jokes AND the recipe). Check out the video here or below.
As you can see, we totally adapted our Crock Pot Chili Cheese Dip to make it more of a topping for all of those hot dogs!
Serve them all up in Big Bertha and you have an instant Hot Dog Bar for parties and potlucks!
Crock Pot Chili Cheese Dogs Notes
- This topping will easily cover 60 hot dogs. I have not tried freezing leftovers. We use it for parties and potlucks. If you missed our how to cook hot dogs in bulk video, see below.
- I like to put my chili and tomatoes in first to keep my cheese from sticking… but a good stir occasionally is a good idea anytime you are using cheese.
- If your cheese ever starts to burn, reduce the heat and do NOT scrape the sides of your crock.
- Big Bertha‘s crocks are 2.5 quarts each. The topping fills up the crock. I would not use a crock bigger than 4 qt to make this topping OR if I did, I would watch it closely so the contents don’t get too hot too fast.
- Video side note– many of you have been asking me about my “NO” pen I use in the videos. Here is where you can get your own “NO” pen.

- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

If I would to divide this in half about how long do you think it should cook?
We haven’t tried cutting this recipe in half. If we did, we would definitely use the smaller crock pot size. The cooking time would be similar, but make sure you watch it closely the first time you try it to adjust the timing as needed. Hope this helps!
This sauce is so good!
I would buy a T-shirt is you offered them…I would prefer a different color but I like it.
