chili dog

Topped ballpark sausage

A chili dog is a hot dog topped with chili con carne, typically served in a bun and often garnished with cheese, onions, or mustard.

It's a staple of American casual dining, found at ballparks, diners, and fast-food chains: We grabbed chili dogs at the concession stand.
