Summer celebrations have started and what better way to enjoy family and friends than outdoors with these Easy Pressure Cooker Coca-Cola® Chili and Sausage Dogs!
Who grew up eating chili? You…and you…and you? Everyone? YES! Chili is one of those classic, easy, comfort foods. I know that I grew up eating my moms beef chili at least once or twice a month.
Now, one more question. Who grew up eating CHILI DOGS? You…not you…maybe you?
Chili dogs were another one of my favorites as a kid. Sheesh, I have a lot of favorite foods from childhood. But, I did really love food as a kid, so it totally makes sense that many of the most memorable moments of my younger years revolve around eating.
Anyway, I will save those embarrassing slash hilarious stories for a different day. They deserve their own post they’re that good.
So, one thing from my childhood that did not exist was the pressure cooker. My mom always made our chili in the slow cooker (which is also awesome), but you guys, the pressure cooker is where it’s at for all things chili. So that’s what I have here today.
Actually, that’s a lie.
I have way more than that.
Today I’m sharing this Pressure Cooker COCA-COLA® CHILI…with sausage dogs! Because it’s summer and obviously.
The steps for this Pressure Cooker Coca-Cola® Chili are quite simple.
- Head to your local Sam’s Club and pick up the new and totally adorable Coca-Cola® Mini Cans. No idea where Sam’s Club is near you? Find yours here, https://www.samsclub.com/locator
- Go to Sam’s Club. Browse the aisles and stock up on all your summer snacks and drinks. They also have an awesome Scan & Go app which allows you to scan and pay for your items through the app on your phone! No more long lines which…have you seen me at the store with my 4-year-old? You’ll understand why such things have been invented.
- Cook it up. This chili recipe really couldn’t be any easier. But, just in case you’re a visual learner, I made a video just for you.

So, this Pressure Cooker Coca-Cola® Chili is great alone, but why not add it to SAUSAGE DOGS?
thinking thinking thinking…
Nope, I couldn’t think of a good reason why this Pressure Cooker Coca-Cola® Chili wouldn’t be great piled on top of a sausage. So that’s what I did. And since I love all things buffet style or “bar” style, I made an EASY sausage dog bar with this Pressure Cooker Coca-Cola®® Chili.
What do you need for an awesome Sausage Dog Bar?
Ok, to be totally honest, hot dog and sausage bars can get a little crazy (bahahahaha, totally cracked myself up on that one). Sorry, focusing…
What I mean is, you can add almost anything to a sausage dog. Like, anything. However, for today, and given that I already had the Coca-Cola® Chili, I decided not to go too crazy. But, if crazy is how you operate, then PLEASE go for it! And please take a picture and tag me so I can see what you come up with (let’s keep it PG, please).
What do I have here,
- Ketchup and mustard
- Relish and pickled jalapeño
- CHEEEEESE
- Green onions and diced white onion
I mean, who wouldn’t want to eat this and wash it down with an ICE COLD Coca-Cola® Mini Can?
I know that my tribe went bonkers for every last bit of it. Even my biggest critic, the 4-year-old, commented that it was the best dinner I ever made.

I don’t have an insta pot or a pressure cooker and just cooked this chili on the stove. Unfortunately, my family does not like beans, so I left them out and added two cans of Hunts Chili Ready Tomato Sauce in exchange for the dice tomatoes. I also added cayenne pepper to give it more spicier taste. It was delicious alone and scrumptious with hot dogs! I definitely will be cooking this chili again. Thank you for sharing. I loved it!
So creative and easy – I cant wait to try this!
