To be fair - sometimes when "it's time to railroad" several will start laying track. Automobiles are a good example. Similar projects came to be in diverse coubtries - at about the same time. But Ed was a local boy and his "creation" has many imitators - especially at fairs and expositions where it's the ultimate "fair fare" desigbed to be eaten whilst one strolls around the grounds ooooohhhhhing and aaahhhing at the exhibits. He also invented custom clamps that allowe 6 Cozy Dogs to swim in n the hot grease st the same time3 A standard restaurant deep fryer would hoold two racks of pups at the same time for an even dozen ready to eat Still, even though I am proud of my "homie" for soping up withb the concept - it's not my favourite hot dog. That eoulf be .... MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Chilli Dog Categories: Beef, Chilli, Cheese, Chilies, Pork Yield: 18 Servings 1/2 lb Bacon; in small pieces 1 lg Onion, chopped 2 lb Ground beef 4 cl Chopped garlic 16 oz Can tomato sauce 1 c Beef broth 2 tb Molasses or honey 2 tb Sweet paprika 1 tb Ground cumin 2 tb Chilli spice 1 ts Cayenne Salt Hot dogs Buns Chopped onion; garnish Shredded Cheddar or Jack - cheese; garnish The chilli recipe makes enough chilli for 16-20 hot dogs, which may seem like a lot, but you're just getting a large spoonful with each dog. So, if you have fewer people to cook for, just use the leftover chilli as a stand-alone-dish for later. If you're feeding more, just double the chilli recipe. You'll be happy you made a big batch. A note on the hot dogs, get the best quality hot dog you can, I/we tend to look for kosher dogs. The hot dogs themselves only need to be grilled enough to be heated; they are already cooked when you take them out of the package. Make the chilli first. Fry the bacon over medium heat until it begins to get crispy, then add the onions and fry over high heat, stirring often, until they begin to brown. Add in the ground beef and stir in well. Cook this, still over high heat and stirring occasionally, until the beef is no longer pink. This will take a few minutes. When the beef is about halfway cooked, toss in the garlic and mix well. Once the beef is well browned, add the tomato sauce, molasses and beef broth. Add all the spices except the cayenne and stir well. Bring to a simmer and taste. Add salt or more cayenne if it needs it. You can of course add much more cayenne or chilli powder if you like things really zippy, but taste first and then add more if you like. Let the chilli cook on a gentle simmer for at least 30 minutes before you start grilling the hot dogs. You can cook it several hours if you want to, adding a little more beef or chicken broth here and there if the chilli gets too dry. Grill your hot dogs over medium heat until they get a light char/grill marks. Grill the hot dog buns briefly if you want - no more than a minute, as they will burn fast. You can also paint the buns with vegetable oil or butter before grilling if you'd like. Dog goes in bun, chilli goes on top, sprinkle on chopped onion and shredded cheese, and have at it!
