Fresh veggies from my garden
I am NOT a gourmet cook. I'm too white trash for that. :) I like to think of my cooking more as classic comfort food. I don't tend to use anything to exotic. But I am willing to try anything as long as it is not too expensive and one of my friends will be willing to eat it. So if you're looking for some great family recipes you came to the right place.

Lori's Coney Island Chili Sauce

For some reason one day, I decided I wanted to make chili. I was looking at so many chili recipes that my eyes began to cross. So I decided to whip up my own. This is great on hot dogs or over french fries. Smothered with lots of cheese! Great winter snack or for football munchies. It's very easy to make. The amounts for this recipe is for a small batch. Since I am just one small person.



Ingredients:
 
1 lb. ground beef
1 cup beef broth
1 onion, chopped or minced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon mustard powder
1 pk chili seasoning (I use old El Paso)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon celery salt
1 tablespoon cornstarch
¼ - 1 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 teaspoon cumin


Directions:


1. Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions about half way thru and garlic when nearly done.

2. Place ground beef in a pot. Add all other ingredients. Stir occasionally and simmer on lowest heat for about an hour.  Add a little water if it thickens too much. Cook a little longer for thicker chili.

I butterfly my hot dogs when I put chili on them. I find it holds more chili and doesn't let the bun get soggy.
