Ed Waldmire may or may not have been 1st with the battered, deep fried
hoy dogs. To be fair - sometimes when "it's time to railroad" several
will start laying track. Automobiles are a good example. Similar projects
came to be in diverse coubtries - at about the same time.

But Ed was a local boy and his "creation" has many imitators - especially
at fairs and expositions where it's the ultimate "fair fare"  desigbed to
be eaten whilst one strolls around the grounds ooooohhhhhing and aaahhhing
at the exhibits.

He also invented custom clamps that allowe 6 Cozy Dogs to swim in n
the hot grease st the same time3 A standard restaurant deep fryer would
hoold two racks of pups at the same time for an even dozen ready to eat

Still, even though I am proud of my "homie" for soping up withb the
concept - it's not my favourite hot dog. That eoulf be ....

     Title: Chilli Dog
Categories: Beef, Chilli, Cheese, Chilies, Pork
     Yield: 18 Servings

   1/2 lb Bacon; in small pieces
     1 lg Onion, chopped
     2 lb Ground beef
     4 cl Chopped garlic
    16 oz Can tomato sauce
     1 c  Beef broth
     2 tb Molasses or honey
     2 tb Sweet paprika
     1 tb Ground cumin
     2 tb Chilli spice
     1 ts Cayenne
          Salt
          Hot dogs
          Buns
          Chopped onion; garnish
          Shredded Cheddar or Jack
          - cheese; garnish

 The chilli recipe makes enough chilli for 16-20 hot dogs,
 which may seem like a lot, but you're just getting a
 large spoonful with each dog. So, if you have fewer
 people to cook for, just use the leftover chilli as a
 stand-alone-dish for later.

 If you're feeding more, just double the chilli recipe.
 You'll be happy you made a big batch. A note on the hot
 dogs, get the best quality hot dog you can, I/we tend to
 look for kosher dogs. The hot dogs themselves only need
 to be grilled enough to be heated; they are already
 cooked when you take them out of the package.

 Make the chilli first. Fry the bacon over medium heat
 until it begins to get crispy, then add the onions and
 fry over high heat, stirring often, until they begin to
 brown.

 Add in the ground beef and stir in well. Cook this,
 still over high heat and stirring occasionally, until
 the beef is no longer pink. This will take a few minutes.
 When the beef is about halfway cooked, toss in the garlic
 and mix well.

 Once the beef is well browned, add the tomato sauce,
 molasses and beef broth. Add all the spices except the
 cayenne and stir well. Bring to a simmer and taste. Add
 salt or more cayenne if it needs it. You can of course
 add much more cayenne or chilli powder if you like things
 really zippy, but taste first and then add more if you
 like.

 Let the chilli cook on a gentle simmer for at least 30
 minutes before you start grilling the hot dogs. You can
 cook it several hours if you want to, adding a little
 more beef or chicken broth here and there if the chilli
 gets too dry.

 Grill your hot dogs over medium heat until they get a
 light char/grill marks. Grill the hot dog buns briefly
 if you want - no more than a minute, as they will burn
 fast. You can also paint the buns with vegetable oil or
 butter before grilling if you'd like.

 Dog goes in bun, chilli goes on top, sprinkle on chopped
 onion and shredded cheese, and have at it!
