Hey, now that I think of it, wonder what ever happened to Captain Morgan? I haven't seen him here in forever.

Thanks for missing me!

I'm still here daily, but since the format switch on the front page I find I'm missing
some of the forum topics.

I hope you'll let me know if I miss anything really ugly.

Whatever brand chili with meat sauce for chili dogs you enjoy, I always end up not being able to use all the chili dog sauce in those small cans.The can sits in the fridge untill I toss it. Sounds like a good idea.

Buying CANNED Chili Dog Sauce s your first mistake.
With all the Chili Dog Sauce recipes on here you should be able to make a batch, let it cool and put small portions in zip-loc freezer bags. Just pull one out when you need some. I heartly recommend tdj_tx's recipe!

Ball makes these really handy and reusable 8 oz freezer containers. It's what I put my sauce in then put them in the freezer.

TDJ_TX Texas Hot - Wiener Sauce
4-5 cups water Less if you like it thicker
12 to 16 oz finely ground hotdogs (I prefer Hebrew National skinless all beef)
1/2 cup cornstarch (dissolved in a little cold water)
1/4 Cup White Vinegar
1 Tsp of Thyme
1 Tbls paprika
1 Tbls chili powder
1 Tsp sea or kosher salt
1/2 Tsp onion powder
1/4 Tsp white pepper
1/2 Tsp oregano
1/2 Tsp cinnamon
1 Tsp crushed red pepper flakes
A few grinds of fresh black pepper
Bring everything to a boil, except the cornstarch.
Let simmer for 30 minutes, then slowly add the cornstarch mixture, stirring constantly. Bring back to a boil, and keep stirring.
Taste along the way, adjusting the salt or pepper as you like it.
Serve on your favorite hotdog, with brown mustard, diced onion, in a steamed hotdog 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.
Note; Each time you reheat the sauce, it will get thicker

My sincere apologies! I have an extensive collection of Recipes on my computer (700+) and a while back, I was re-working my files, re-organizing, re-classifying, eliminating duplicates and doing some cutting and pasting. Apparently I must have somehow switched titles on your recipe with another one I had. When it comes to computer skills, I'm roaring into the 19th Century.
If you look back deeper on Roadfood you will find a number of Posts on similar threads for Hot Dog Sauces where I have posted your recipe or the link that reverts back to your original post and I have given you full credit for your recipe.

Thank You, tdj_tx. That makes me feel much better! When I hit the lottery this week or next, I'm coming down to Leander, TX and I'm going to set you up with your own company to bottle this stuff.

You are more than welcome to visit, I'll keep my fingers crossed on the lottery win :-) I actually looked into creating a Hot Wiener kit with the dry ingredients and instructions. All you have to do is add the ground hotdogs and water. Turns out it's a lot more money and hassle than I would like to deal with.

Hi claracamille,

I live in Charleston, WV - Kanawha City in a neighborhood called South Park, I went to South Park Elementary in the 60's, I don't remember having parents from the PTA selling anything in the school. We had wonderful cooks who put a lot of love in the meals they fixed for the kids, everything homemade, nothing prepackaged/precooked back then. They made the best macaroni and cheese, spanish rice, birds nests, etc... and if anything was left over after everyone was served we could stop by the kitchen and get seconds before we went to the playground..........those were the days.

Re:Hot Dog Chili Sauce (claracamille)

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 13:19:58 GMT

Captain,

It has been over 40 years since I tasted PTA mom chili but based on my mom's hot dog chili the ingredients were:
ground beef, onions, tomato sauce, chili power, salt, pepper.

I know it did not contain catsup, my mother never cooked with catsup, it was a condiment only. She used homemade chili sauce in her baked beans, I still use chili sacue in my baked beans today.

In my experience West Virginians do not like their hot dog chili to be too spicy, just a little taste of the chili powder. Aso, texture is very important, the chili must be smooth, no big chunks of bround ground beef.

I wonder if anyone has any idea when chili was first added to hot dogs. I am 62 & I cannot remember not having both chili & slaw on hotdogs. One of my first memories is a "weiner roast" at my grandparents farm & that must have been in the early 1050's. My grandmother had a small iron pot that she made her hotdog chili in, I can remember her carrying the to the part of the farm where we always had "weiner roasts".

I don't think you could pay me to live in Phoenix or Scottsdale. I think people move there because hell isn't hot enough for them. ;)

By the way, if you're getting a lot of LA people moving there, you should be glad. You're getting good looking and healthy people with great attitudes who actually know how to drive. Though I saw a lot of good looking girls in Scottsdale when I was there a couple of years ago for the Barrett-Jackson auto auction.

I must say, I really liked the Fairmont hotel there.

If your attitude is a reflection of those "Great CA Attitudes" please stay right where you are! I'd rather be a little warm than watch my overpriced house slide down a hill in a mudslide or burn up in a wildfire while I'm sitting for hours on a concrete slab called a freeway! BTW, breathing smog all day long is not creating "Healthy" people.
Besides you contradict yourself. You like our good looking women, you like our nice hotels, you like our cars, we're lovely people and enjoy the lifestyle benefits of a nice cost of living environment.

Re:Hot Dog Chili Sauce (claracamille)

I want my hot dog chili to taste just like the chili that the Roxalana Elementary School PTA moms made in the 1950's. Every friday the moms would make hotdogs to sell at lunch. We did not have a lunch room so in the morning the moms would setup a folding table, bring in a turkey roaster to make the chili. By the time lunch came all the students were so hungry, I could have eaten a dozen or those hot dogs.

My mom's recipe for chili is very good, but it still doesn't compare to that turkey roaster chili.
