    Varsity Drive-In

    Recipe Introduction


    The Varsity The World�s largest Drive-In Restaurant


    CHILI SAUCE
    When you are topping a hot dog or hamburger with chili sauce, it is vital that the consistency be uniform, no meat chunks allowed. This method is traditional among the nation�s hot dog chefs and they are avid about the beef having to be nearly pulverized. If you cannot grind your own, see if you can have a butcher make an extra-fine grind for this recipe.

    Makes enough to top 6 hot dogs.

    List of Ingredients




    2 garlic cloves, mince
    1/2 cup onion, chop fine
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    1 lb lean ground beef
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 tablespoon yellow mustard
    1 tablespoon vinegar
    1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
    1/2 teaspoon Tabasco, or to taste
    1/4 cup ketchup
    1/2 to 1 cup tomato juice

    Recipe



    In a large heavy skillet cook garlic and onion in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until onion is softened. Add beef and cook, stirring and breaking up any lumps with a fork, until cooked through. Drain off any excess fat if desired. Add remaining ingredients, adding just enough juice to create a very loose but not soupy mixture. Simmer sauce, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.
