TEXAS HOT WIENER SAUCE



Texas Hot Wiener Sauce image

While living in the Mid-Hudson Valley of NY I fell in love with this style of hot dog, particularly the sauce. My wife was born there and she loved them as well. When we moved to Texas it was a surprise to find, 'There is no such thing as hot wiener sauce in Texas.' I did a lot of research and found the recipe is a closely guarded secret that I had to crack. After years of experimenting I finally created the same experience we only had back in NY. Serve on your favorite hot dog with brown mustard, diced onion, in a steamed hot dog bun. This sauce will be thin, it is supposed to be, it is not a 'chili dog' recipe. The sauce will thicken as it cools. It freezes well.

GREEK HOT DOG SAUCE



Greek Hot Dog Sauce image

Not tomato based and so close to what our local famous Hot Dog joints offer (here in Toledo it's Nettie's and Rudy's)! Passed along from my Uncle Bob who knew the owner of a local Hot Dog joint in the early 50's. Let me know what YOU think because I think it's GREAT! Freezes well and since a little goes a long way, I suggest freezing in smaller containers so you have it on hand when needed. Also makes a great gift for the chili dog lovers you know! Update 6/2013. Though I've stayed true to this recipe, I tried adding ground cloves and found it added another level of flavor that we enjoy even more than the local "Dog Joints" make. Simple change so if you make this regularly, give it a try!

Time 1h10m

Yield 25-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb ground beef
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons dried onion flakes
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a saucepan and add all spices. Before heating, stir into a paste.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for one hour or until liquid is reduced to your liking.
  • If you use very lean meat to avoid cholesterol, add a tablespoon or two vegetable oil (I don't suggest olive oil). It's the oil that brings the flavor to the tongue!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use hard cider that is at least 6% alcohol by volume (ABV).
  • If you don't have hard cider, you can use apple juice or apple cider vinegar, but the flavor will not be as strong.
  • Be sure to cook the onions slowly over low heat so that they caramelize and become sweet and flavorful.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. If you do, they will steam instead of caramelizing.
  • Use a good quality hot dog bun. A stale or dry bun will ruin the whole dish.
  • Top the hot dogs with your favorite toppings, such as mustard, ketchup, relish, or sauerkraut.

Conclusion:

Sticky cider onion hot dogs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a casual dinner. The caramelized onions are sweet and flavorful, and the hard cider adds a unique tang to the dish. Serve these hot dogs with your favorite toppings, and you're sure to have a hit on your hands.
