We recently had a scrumptious, meaty Coney Dog from the Ed and Bev's food kiosk located inside of Brooklyn's newest and hippest beer hall, Berg'n. After scarfing down the chili-topped wiener, we were reminded of a fantastic hot dog sauce recipe from the queen of the kitchen herself, Simply Sara! We've been watching the Simply Sara cooking show on YouTube for months and her recipes are honest-to-goodness gems that guarantee to put smiles on hungry faces. This hot dog sauce recipe is especially fun and with it you can enjoy a Coney style dog from the comfort of your own home! Sara describes the delectable sauce as "Coney Island mixed with Cincinnati -- It's my twist on it." We've transcribed the recipe below, but watch for yourself here as Simply Sara whips up her kitchen magic!
