OKAY! For the last 17 years my friends, family, husband and children have heard me RAVE about "Michigan Coney Dogs"! They are the BEST and there is nothing like them that I have found. We have looked up recipes and tried different things, but nothing is quite the same. Tonight John looked up recipes for Coney Sauce once again and found this GEM! FLINT CONEY SAUCE! I couldn't believe the title! Then I saw that they only use it on KOGEL hot dogs! SCORE! This has to be it!!! Then I got a good look at the first two ingredients...see for yourself-FLINT'S ORIGINAL CONEY SAUCE
1/2 lb. of beef kidney
1/2 lb. of beef heart
3 tbsp of paprika
2 tbsp of chili powder
1/4 cooking oil
salt to taste
Have your butcher grind kidney and heart.
Start by mixing all ingredients except oil in an adequately sized sauce pan. Since meat is very dry, slowly add oil before turning on heat.
Mix well over medium heat, and allow to simmer on low heat for about 45 min. May need to add more oil, since you do not want mixture to "fry dry".
I always use a Vienna hot dog (Koegel's are the best), Coney Sauce, diced onions, and mustard top the bun.
Can't get this in a restaurant except in Flint, MI.
Wh..Wh..WHAT THE HECK! HEARTS AND KIDNEYS! COULD THIS POSSIBLY BE RIGHT?
I need my Michigan contacts to leave comments and confirm if this could really be true!
