Turn them every 2 minutes until there are grill marks on each side.

Then add the buns face down on the grill (or toast, or steam them if you prefer).

One way to steam them is to lay a small cooling rack over a pot of boiling water for a minute or so; just long enough for the buns to get soft.

Lay the toasted or steamed buns on a plate and add about 1/2 cup of the warm chili to each bun.

Then add the hot dog.

12
Next add the rest of the chili on top of each hot dog.

Top with the cheese, onions, tomatoes, avocados and hot peppers.
