CONEY ISLAND HOT DOG CHILI SAUCE
This recipe is quick and easy. Only have to simmer for 30 minutes! It started as a very saucy Coney Island hot dog sauce. I prefer a meatier chili sauce, but if you prefer it saucy with less meat, reduce ground round to 1/2 pound meat.

Steps:
- 1. In a large skillet, cook beef and garlic over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes or until beef is no longer pink, make sure to turn beef into fine crumbles. Best method is a potato masher to mash while cooking; do not drain!
- 2. Stir in brown sugar and seasonings. Add water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 50 to 60 minutes until liquid is almost evaporated. Now its ready to serve, freeze, or can!
- Hot Dog Directions: You gotta use Kolbasz sausage! Heat oven to 350 F, place sausage in a greased baking pan with a little Hungarian Beer. Bake about 1 Hour or until sausage is browned, but not dry.
- Serve 'em up: The restaurant serves the sausage split in half (one half per dog) to make room and take on the chili sauce better. Use Hawaiian Sweet Hot Dog Buns, cover with chili, and then desired ingredients: common is chili first, then mustard, then diced onion on top, and with peppers and pickles on the side. Optional: shredded cheese cheddar jack mix on top of the onions.

CONEY ISLAND CHILI DOG SAUCE
After countless searches for a good Coney Island sauce, I stumbled on this one at another cooking website. Most recipes I had tried were just too sweet, this is a good Midwest-style Coney sauce. I didn't follow the measurements to the letter - just eyeballed it; and I added a couple dashes of hot sauce to kick up the heat a bit.

This is pure nostalgia. This is as close to perfect as it gets. When I worked in Detroit, I ate hundreds of these and there is nothing like it in the world.

I was looking for this online today - found it at TOH forums - and whomever posted said they found it at CDKitchen.

FLINT CONEY ISLAND HOT DOG SAUCE
This was published in the Flint Journal some time after the death of the man who created it. His wife allowed it to be published. There was some discrepancy over the use of beef heart or hot dogs as a main ingredient. I use hot dogs but feel free to experiment with beef heart. This was the cornerstone recipe for several local restaurants in the Flint area where I grew up and is a favorite memory of many who were raised here.

Steps:
- DO NOT brown ground beef before using. Combine ALL ingredients except hot dogs in a pot and simmer until thickened. Stir occasionally to ensure beef does not clump and cooks evenly.
- Grind the hot dogs very fine (or chop fine in food processor) stir into beef mixture and cook 15 minutes longer.
- Use over GOOD natural casing hot dogs (Koegel Vienna if possible) with chopped onion and mustard. The big secret in this recipe is the ground hot dogs. (Hint: Back home, I still used the Koegels' in the sauce, just the skinless ones).

GRAM'S FLINT CONEY ISLAND SAUCE
This sauce is one of many recipes claiming originallity from the various "original Flint Coney Island Dog" restaurants throughout the Flint area. The basic difference between this and the New York "Coney Island Sauce" is that the Flint version is a much drier version than the wet New York style. This recipe's history was that it was obtained ingredient by ingredient from a freind of my wife's grandmother who worked at one of the "original" Coney Island restaurants... as with many of these types of foods... this recipe is a "SECRET."

- Bring to boil stirring often.
- Remove from heat.
- Add the breadcrumbs and vinegar.
- Cover and bake 325F for 1 hour (check after 1/2 hour and stir- I added up to 2 cups water personal preference for not wanting too thick of a sauce) As an option because sauce too spicy I added 1 tsp each ketchup and mustard or to taste.

- (May want to try grinding in blender for finer texture so not so much like a spaghetti sauce).
Tips:
- To make the sauce extra smooth, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before serving.
- If you don't have any red wine vinegar, you can substitute white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
- If you want a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- This sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Serve the sauce with hot dogs, hamburgers, or grilled meats.
