Chili Dogs

Thanks to Kathie for this recipe.
Coney Island Sauce (like chili dogs but of "Greek" origin)

• 1 pound lean Ground Beef
• 1/4-1/2 pound Lard (do not substitute with shortening or oil - I use 1/2)
• small onion, chopped fine
• 1 tsp. Salt
• 1/8 tsp. Garlic
• 1 quart Water
• 1/4-1/3 CUP Paprika (I use 1/3)
• 1/3-1/2 CUP Chili Powder (I use 1/3)
• 1/4 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
• YOU MUST HAVE THE NATURAL CASING (SKIN-ON) WIENERS - The cheap "store brand" buns are better than the "bakery" type.

• Brown together ground beef, lard, onion, salt and garlic.
• Bring water to a boil and while stirring, add spices to the water (this will foam up a little so be sure your pan is big enough).
• Add the spiced water to the ground beef mixture and simmer, uncovered for 1 hour or more. (add water if it gets too thick.)
• Serve with "skin -on wieners" on steamed buns with mustard and chopped onions.
• This is going to look real strange.... You really do need all that lard BUT, when you serve it , dip down into the meat part and mostly drain off the liquid. DO NOT STIR IT UP BEFORE SERVING, the lard stuff needs to remain on top. (You can put this together and leave in crock pot on low for hours if need be) You only use about one or two teaspoonfuls on each dog but this freezes very well. This is great for parties and get-togethers. (If you don't have a bun steamer.... You can just put the wiener on a bun, wrap it in paper towel and microwave it for 30 sec. on high. This will give you the same effect.)
