I'm from Detroit and I've thought this is how most people eat a Coney! Of course the best 'chili' for them is the bulk 'dehydrated' chili you can get from Sherwood Foods. and lots of diced onion and good mustard like Plochmans. one can also put on some saurkraut ( if your from the Hamtramck area! )
Ashley so many States have a way of making dogs "their own" which I think is so cool. My hubby LOVES his Red Hots so I'm always looking for new ways to make them for him. Needless to say the boy was a happy camper when I served him your Detroit recipe. You're so adorable and I can't believe that you've got two little ones! Of course all Ashley's are beautiful as I've got a gorgeous one myself! Thanks so much for sharing!!
Although I've had chili dogs I did not realize the correct way to serve coney dogs was with mustard and now I see that that's the only way to go! (Minor correction - I think you meant 4 hot dog buns not 1.)
Never have I had a coney dog better than one from here at home in Detroit....Great recipe!!!
Forgot to get mustard which made me really sad but the rest of the recipe was helpful.
You hit a home run with this one! I always eat my hot dogs this way and I'm from Detroit lol! Growing up I went to plenty of Tiger games!
Very Good. Natural Casings Are the best.
I have missed these. I got a stash of sauce from one of the Detroit chains and used that instead of canned. These were a big hit during the Tiger game. Since I no longer eat hot dogs making these at home with veggie dogs(I know I know) is the only way I can enjoy them. Everyone else still has "real" hot dogs and enjoys these here as much as at the restaurant.
Yummy. Just like what I grew up with.
Detroit style Coney sauce has beef heart in it. Also no tomato products, which are a main ingredient in most canned chilis. This is just a chili dog "recipe". But props for using a natural casing dog, and the proper mustard and onion.
