Recipes Friday: A&W Chili Dogs

A&W Chili Dogs
Do you feel like having a Chili Dog?!?! if you are, you are in luck :)

A&W Chili Dogs

1 Sabrett brand 2 ounce beef frankfurter (7½" long)
1 regular hot dog roll
3 Tablespoons A&W Coney Island Sauce (see recipe below)
1 Tablespoon chopped white onion
1/2 Tablespoon Kraft shredded mild cheddar cheese (optional)
A&W Coney Island Chili Dog Sauce

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin (heaping)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound ground chuck
1 six ounce can Hunts tomato paste
1 Cup water
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
1 Tablespoon dried, minced onion
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon celery seed

Making the Chili Dog Sauce:

1. In a 2 qt. saucepan, brown the ground chuck, breaking into very small
pieces. Salt and pepper lightly while cooking. Do not drain the fat.
2. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, 30−45 minutes until it
thickens. Stir occasionally.

Cooking your A&W Chili Dog

1. Bring a 2 qt. saucepan of water to a rolling boil.
2. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and add the desired number of
frankfurters to the water. Cover and let sit about 10 minutes.
3. Get the dogs ready and throw it on the grill or stove and sizzle it a bit, or you could simply just prepare the bun and eat it as is.
4. Then microwave each hot dog roll/bun 15 seconds on high, (personally I take a wet kitchen paper towel, wet it and wring/squeeze the water out and wrap it around the bun then I microwave it so the buns are semi steamed) to bring the buns to a warm and soft feel, which makes all the difference! or if you prefer you could throw it on the grill too!

If you haven't heard the company that owns A&W, Yum, is trying to sell off A&W and Long John Silver after acquiring back in 2002. For more on the story click here
