Castleberry's Hot Dog Chili Sauce is the only chili sauce for our family. My husband and I have been enjoying this original product for over 30 years and our kids, now all grown up, love it too. I also love that they are coming out with new flavors. This is one of those things that no other brand will do, especially not the generic. It has to be Castleberry's! Perfect texture, no meat, just beans, but you really wouldn't be able to tell if you liked the meat kind, it has that much flavor. Great for chili cheese fries and baked potatoes too.

Where's the Beef?

Chili: a mixture of meat, tomato sauce and spices. Castleberry's: not chili. I normally get Hormel's chili (no beans) to make a chili dog. I though I'd try other brands to see how they stack up. Castleberry's does NOT stack up. Why? No meat! It's made with, basically, smashed beans and beef fat. Imagine refried beans with tomato-like sauce and spices poured over your hotdog. Now I love refried beans smothered with cheddar cheese, but basically putting refried beans over a hotdog? NOT! I do NOT recommend this "chili" for anything.

    Castleberry's Hot Dog Chili

    Ok, I do like a good hotdog chili and I do like making my own. I have tried several other brands that just didn't stand up like I had thought they should. This Castleberry may be thinner than some but for me the taste is what makes it. If you like it thicker just add a little hamburger meat to it. We had made hot dogs and we had several cans of these in the cupboard. Heats easy, taste great. I like that you can add just a few things if you want and it really makes it pop for me. Few diced peppers, onions added to this makes me happy. There is nothing at all wrong with the texture or taste. It's just the way I like my chili at times. We all have different taste buds and likes, I am just saying for me if I need a quick chili for cookouts or t...

    This might be tiny, but it's truly mighty! Such a delicious little treat! When you open the can, the wonderful aroma immediately hits your senses—so inviting! I chose to cook mine on the stove rather than in the microwave, which really brings out the flavor! It's absolutely perfect and sure to delight your taste buds!

    My testing shows it's best among nine

    Last year, I noticed how many canned hot dog chili brands are sold at Walmart. I made it my mission to test each one and rate them. There were nine brands and I rated them all based on 1) taste, 2) texture, and 3) spiciness. Castleberry's Hot Dog Chili Sauce scored best in all three categories compared to the eight other brands. That's why I, for my own hot dog dining experience, still make Castleberry's my top choice.

    Castleberry's hot dog chili sauce

    I was pleasantly surprised, this is really good! I'm pretty picky about chili, because I can't stand any kind of meat in a can. But this is really good! Maybe my new favorite!

    Castleberry Hot Dog Chili is my favorite!

    Castleberry Hot Dog Chili is my favorite! I can't get it in stores in the Pacific Northwest and was thrilled to see that I could order in online from Walmart.

    Very good

    We've tried just about every variety of hot dog chili sauce. This one by-far is the best tasting for the best price. My husband won't eat anything else.

    This is the closest flavor I've found to the old chili sauce used in Western New York Texas Hots, Garbage Plates and Slime Dogs. Just need steamed buns, boiled skinless hotdogs, finely chopped onion and mustard... SMJ 25

    Nostalgic Hot Dog Sauce

    This is a taste of nostalgia for me. My dad always put it on our hot dogs. It's like no other “chili”. If you're looking for a traditional chili this is not it. It's a sauce made for hotdogs that almost tastes like chili. I like it but grew up on it. I think it's worth tasting!

    Not bad

    This is a pretty decent hot dog sauce for a canned sauce. It has a nice flavor, but is a little bit on the hot side. I don't really like spicy food, but this isn't bad. I'll buy this again when I don't feel like making homemade sauce.

    I use to buy this when I was younger and I tell you this hotdog sauce use to be the best. I'm not happy about how the quality has changed over the years and I will not be buying again. Do better!
