FLINT'S ORIGINAL CONEY ISLAND RECIPE - FOOD.COM

Flint's Original Coney Island Recipe - Food.com image

I've lived in Flint, Michigan my entire life, and I was brought up on Coneys. The recipe has always been kept "top secret", and every restaurant has a slightly different version. But my friend's grandmother opened and ran one of Flint's top Coney Island restaurants for many years, and she gave me this recipe. The original recipe calls for beef kidney, heart and suet. But guess what? That's what hot dogs are made from! That's why ground hot dogs are a good substitution. I've tried and tasted many copycat recipes for Coney sauce, but I'm convinced that this one is the best. Coneys are traditionally served using a steamed hot dog bun, a koegel vienna hot dog (any vienna hotdog will do) then topped with the sauce, yellow mustard and finely chopped onions. Yum! The friend also noted that if it tastes like something is missing.. add more cumin. By the way, Koegel Viennas are now available to order online!

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 lb hamburger (not lean)
1/2 lb beef hot dog, ground up (the cheap hot dogs work best)
1 onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons ground cumin
3 tablespoons mild paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 cups water

Steps:

Mix all ingredients in a heavy pan and cook over med to low heat until mixture cooks and becomes dry and crumbly.
If it seems too wet or greasy, add a few crumbled saltine crackers.
Best if made a day ahead and reheated in a frying pan.
Freezes well.
Note: I grind my hot dogs up in a blender with a little water.
I also chop the onions using my blender with water.

CONEY ISLAND HOT DOGS | ALLRECIPES

Coney Island Hot Dogs | Allrecipes image

The story of how the Coney Island hog dog got to the Midwest is pretty straightforward, but no one really knows exactly how the wiener first came to be topped with what is basically a hot meat relish. I have no idea how authentic this is, and have never been to Detroit, or even Flint. I have had Nathan's® version, which I enjoyed, but the word on the street is that it's not nearly as good as the relatives it spawned.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1?½ pounds lean ground beef
2 cups water, or more to taste
½ cup diced onion
? cup ketchup
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons chili powder, or more to taste
1?½ teaspoons salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground cumin, or to taste
½ teaspoon celery salt, or to taste

CONEY ISLAND KNISHES | ALLRECIPES

One of my earliest 'exotic' food experiences was eating potato knishes with my Dad in Coney Island. I mean, mashed potatoes in a warm, flaky pastry? This potato fiend will have two, please. Back then their secret was the copious amounts of chicken fat, aka schmaltz, but here I'll show you how succeed without it. Leftover corned beef really shines in these, but anything goes, as long as the base is mashed potato spiked with onions and fried in lots of fat.
