Wienies (Hot Dogs) Creole image

This recipe goes WAY back to my childhood. My Mother found it in a woman's magazine, and it became a family staple. My older sister used to come home, from college, and ask my Mom to make it, just because she LOVED the aroma in the house, when it was cooking. I was so happy the day my newly married daughter called me, and asked me for the recipe, so she could make it for her husband. THEN, not too long after that, my son called and asked, for it, because he wanted to make it for his wife! That's three generations making this for their families. The recipe has evolved a bit, since I was a little girl, but only for the better. I must admit, that many children pick out the bell pepper slices, but that's OK. For me, it isn't Wienies Creole without the bell peppers.

This dish was a bit too time-consuming for me. I had to make the Creole sauce from scratch, which took a while. The hot dogs were good, but I don't think they were worth the effort.

I thought this dish was just okay. The Creole sauce was a bit bland for my taste, and the hot dogs were a bit overcooked. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

I liked this recipe, but I made a few changes. I used a different type of Creole sausage, and I added some chopped green bell pepper and onion to the sauce. I also grilled the hot dogs instead of boiling them. The result was a delicious and flavorful

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it! He said it was the best hot dog he's ever had. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.
