CONEY ISLAND HOT DOGS
The story of how the Coney Island hog dog got to the Midwest is pretty straightforward, but no one really knows exactly how the wiener first came to be topped with what is basically a hot meat relish. I have no idea how authentic this is, and have never been to Detroit, or even Flint. I have had Nathan's® version, which I enjoyed, but the word on the street is that it's not nearly as good as the relatives it spawned.

Steps:
- Combine ground beef, water, 1/2 cup diced onion, ketchup, butter, garlic, chili powder, salt, black pepper, cumin, celery salt, and cayenne pepper together in a pot. Mix with a potato masher or spatula over medium-high heat until mixture has a finely ground consistency and begins to bubble, about 10 minutes.
- Bring beef mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens and reduces, about 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook hot dogs in boiling water until heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange hot dog buns on a baking sheet.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the hot dog will be. Look for fresh, high-quality beef, pork, or lamb for the hot dog itself. Use a good quality bun, and don't forget the toppings!
- Get the right equipment: A good hot dog roller or grill is essential for getting that perfect Coney Island char. If you don't have one, you can also use a stovetop grill or even a frying pan.
- Cook the hot dogs properly: Don't overcook the hot dogs! They should be cooked through, but still juicy. The best way to tell if a hot dog is done is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the center of the hot dog and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Load up on the toppings: The classic Coney Island hot dog is topped with mustard, onions, and sauerkraut. But you can also get creative with your toppings. Some other popular options include chili, cheese, bacon, and relish.
- Serve immediately: Hot dogs are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are at their juiciest and most flavorful.
Conclusion:
The Coney Island hot dog is a classic American dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. With its simple yet delicious combination of flavors, it's no wonder why this hot dog is so popular. If you've never had a Coney Island hot dog, I highly recommend trying one. You won't be disappointed!
