the Waldmires have proof. And the iconic Cozy Dog drive/landmark-in on Route 66. Seriously.

Thanks for the history lesson. I guess the recipe i posted made wild claims.

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!
