Billionaire's Gourmet Franks and Beans
Ingredients
  • 1 pound hot dogs
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 fresh poblano chile pepper, diced
  • 1 rib celery, diced
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cayenne pepper, or other hot red pepper
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken broth, or as needed
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
Instructions
1
Carefully make shallow cuts along the length of hot dog skins, extending them to all four sides. This will prevent them from curling up during cooking and make them easier to handle. Slice the hot dogs into thin, uniform rounds.
2
Melt butter in a large cooking vessel over medium heat. Add sliced onions, diced poblano pepper, chopped celery, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste and stir until the vegetables are tender and the onions have lost their rawness, taking around 5 to 7 minutes.
3
Add the sliced hot dogs to the pot and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until they are heated through and the fat from the hot dogs has blended with the butter, approximately 3 minutes. Introduce brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce into the mixture; pour in chicken broth. Stir in canned beans. Increase the heat to bring the stew to a gentle simmer; reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Meanwhile, use a wooden spoon to mash some of the beans against the side of the pot to help thicken the stew. If the mixture becomes too thick, add a little more broth.

Finally, just before serving, stir in chopped green onions.
