One And Only Coney Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the coney sauce: In a large pan, brown the ground beef, then discard excess grease. Add beef to a stockpot or crockpot and set to low heat. Add chili powder, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders, paprika, cayenne and 1 cup water to the pot and mix together. Cook on low, stirring occasionally and stirring in more water 1/4 cup at a time as necessary, until you achieve your desired consistency, 4 to 6 hours.
• For the coney: Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F or heat a grill to 425 degrees F. Cook the wiener until the natural casing gives you a nice "snap."
• Apply yellow mustard to the inside of the hot dog bun. Add wiener to the bun. Add coney sauce and top with onions.

Steps:

• Place the ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until beef is browned. Drain. Transfer the beef and onion to a slow cooker and stir in the ketchup, sugar, vinegar and mustard. Season with celery seed, Worcestershire sauce, pepper and salt. Cover and simmer on Low setting for a few hours before serving.

Steps:

• Brown meat very well in 10-inch skillet. Drain fat.
• Add remaining ingredients, except flour and 1/4 cup water, to meat. Gently simmer 1/2 hour.
• Pour into blender. Blend until semi-smooth. Return to pan.
• If thicker sauce is desired, mix 2 tablespoons flour with 1/4 cup water. Add to meat mixture, or leave out for thinner sauce.
• Cook until desired consistency is achieved.
• Pour over steamed hot dogs or loose, cooked ground round heaped into hot dog buns.

Steps:

• 1. Chef's Note: There are two secrets to the traditional sauce: a minimum of ingredients, and the cut of the ground beef. As one vendor I talked to on Coney Island said to me: If you want to add extra onions, mustard, beans, whatever... Go for it, but the sauce is the sauce, pure and simple (a man of few words). In truth, keeping the ingredients to a minimum makes this an ideal sauce for a variety of things: For example, it's an excellent sauce for a chili/cheese burger.
• 2. Start by finely chopping the onions. Chef's Tip: The easiest way to do this is to use the large holes on a box grater. In addition, when you grate an onion, it will release a lot of moisture from the ruptured cell walls, and I usually pick up some of that excess liquid by laying the grated onion on a few sheets of paper towels.
• 3. Have your other ingredients close at hand.
• 4. Add the cold water (or stock) to a skillet, and then add the grated onions, and the ground beef. Chef's Note: This ground sirloin is not your typical grind... it's called a triple grind by your butcher. What I usually do is take regular grind and put it into my food processer for a couple of spins. The result is a very finely ground beef, and that is one of the secrets of this sauce.
• 5. Chef's Historical Note: According to the historical record, the recipe used ground beef heart, which is then ground to a consistency of fine-ground beef... not ground sirloin.
• 6. Simmer the onion and beef over medium-to-medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked, and the onions are soft, about15 minutes.
• 7. Add the remaining ingredients, and slow simmer, uncovered, until it thickens, about 2 to 3 hours. Chef's Tip: I like Maxine's chili powder, but it's hot, so I usually use only 4 tablespoons. Actually, the chili powder will really make this sauce... Chef's Note: If it begins drying out, add a bit of water, or broth.
• 8. Chef's Tip: If you are using beef stock, as opposed to plain water, then you might want to leave out the additional salt.
• 9. Well, that's about it... get yourself a dog or two, and have at it. What are you waiting for...
• 10. One more thing: If you are a purest, and you want the "real" experience, then you need the right hotdog, and that's from the Koegel Meat Company in Flint, Michigan. Keep the faith, and keep cooking...

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium high heat, saute the ground beef and onion for 5 to 10 minutes, or until meat is well browned. Crumble meat to a fine texture with a fork, if necessary; drain excess fat.
• Stir in the mustard, vinegar, sugar, water, Worcestershire sauce, celery seed, hot pepper sauce and ketchup. Mix well reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 35 to 40 minutes.
