The Ultimate Classic Coney Sauce
Coneys are an awesome way to take hot dogs to a whole new level! I hope you enjoy this as much as I do and I look forward to hearing all about your experiences with it! We’ve also got some great dessert recipes for that end of meal sweet tooth!
When I was a kid, my Mom took me to this place in Tulsa, OK called Coney Island. It wasn’t an island, just a fast food joint, but it seemed magical. A place where they MADE chili dogs right in front of you! It was on special occasions that we went, like when I begged enough. LOL.
I’m sure you probably realize there is an actual place more known than this silly little place in Tulsa, I had no idea until years later! haha. Ahh, to be a child again!
Anyway, this is the closest I’ve come to re-living it at home. Just remember, the hot sauce you use makes a huge difference in the flavor. We tried it with green hot sauce and I wasn’t a fan. Chief Zoo Keeper liked it, I didn’t. Let me know if you find a fabulous variation!
Coney Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 c finely chopped (or even minced) white onion
- 2 tbsp minced garlic
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp yellow mustard

- 1/2 tsp hot sauce
- 1 c ketchup
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp chili powder
Directions
- Saute onion and garlic.
- Add ground beef, brown, drain. (You can also use ground turkey!)
- Combine other ingredients in a bowl, mix well, then add to ground beef mixture.

I usually go to the state fair. This would be a good substitute.
*sigh* They just reported ours would be cancelled, understandably so but still disappointing. The recipe is fabulous. It became a regular in our house really fast! Hope you enjoy it!
