Dollar Tree vs. Aldi: Chili Cheese Dog Showdown
Discover whether cutting grocery costs drastically at Dollar Tree over Aldi results in an unrecognizable flavor profile when making identical comfort food. This comparison reveals crucial differences in ingredient quality, even for basic items like beef and hot dogs.
Short Summary
- Aldi ingredients led to a superior final chili cheese dog, though both dishes were rated highly enjoyable.
- The Dollar Tree beef patty was notably cut with water and soy flour compared to the Aldi pure ground beef.
- The presentation and flavor of the Aldi hot dog (Hebrew National style) were preferred over the mixed meat Dollar Tree option.
- Unconventional cooking techniques, such as starting chili on a cold pan and steaming buns, were championed for achieving a specific textural goal ("slop").
This segment pits the sourcing strategies of Dollar Tree against Aldi by constructing two complete chili cheese dog meals, including a Southwest pasta salad side. The chef employs highly personalized, sometimes controversial, cooking methods intended to maximize texture and flavor integration, specifically aiming for soft, emulsified "hot dog chili." The resulting dishes are served blind to a judge to determine if the price differential reflects a noticeable quality gap.

I love how Josh is just HOUSING the chili dogs at the end while Jordan is talking about them 😭
I love the girl who is putting the microphone back on Josh, saying no to everything he says, without missing a beat or breaking at all.
Jordan kills me. “I’m gonna go outside and burp Josh” not in a million years would I have guessed I’d be hearing that. 🤣🤣🤣
Dollar Tree side has Aldi Hot Dogs, Cheese, and Mustard. Burman's is an Aldi brand, so is Happy Farms, and Parkview. Someone messed up.
Having a hotdog party and not inviting Arasha from Smosh? She will be devastated!
I am EXACTLY the right amount of high for this episode. I’m digging it. Loved how the producer that had to wipe Josh’s chest just absolutely deadpanned him to his face.
Came to the comments in a panic the second I saw the hot dogs were on the wrong side lmao. Relieved to find out they corrected it, even if they don’t say anything.
Jordyn hitting josh with the "you okay there bud?" Has made my day an unparalleled level better.
“Gonna reclaim gloopy as a positive adjective for food.” Josh Scherer (2022) Mission accomplished, Josh. Mission accomplished.
Aldi employee here. You mixed some of the dollar tree brands with the Aldi brands in the opening sequence. Not sure if that was done throughout the segment….🥴😬
