Next time your make Hot Dogs top them with this delicious Coney Island Hot Dog Sauce. The classic Hot Dog sauce is absolutely delicious!
I finally had the opportunity to make a batch of this Coney Island Hot Dog Sauce for an upcoming camping trip. Easy to make ahead of time and heat up in the microwave before serving.
To many, this may just seem like the topping for a chili dog and are wondering the origins of why it's called a Coney Island Hot Dog. I was a little surprised to see the European influence on this classic hot dog meat topping.
I don't often make Hot Dogs but when I do, it's usually on my weber BBQ while camping. There's just something about camping and cooking Burgers & Hot Dogs on a BBQ.
When I do make Hot Dogs at home, I will occasionally boil them in water instead of frying them. Not sure how common of a practice this is but my mom used to make them that way for us when we were kids.

Keep raw and ready-to-eat meats separate.
Wash hands thoroughly before and after handling raw ground beef. Wash cutting boards, bowls, and utensils used to prepare raw ground beef with hot soapy water and rinse well.

This sauce was just delicious. I am not much of a hot dog lover, but with this sauce it was delicious. I did not add the extra onions on top of the sauce as there were onions in the sauce, but I don’t believe it would have made a big difference because the sauce was perfect as it was. It is a big keeper for myself and children.
