There is a town close by that has this little dive of a diner called "Coney Island". My dad loves their hot dogs and recently I found out Christopher does too. I started my search for the secret recipe. After looking all across the internet I found the perfect version right in my kitchen. Duh! I was surprised to find it in one of my Gooseberry Patch cookbooks. Christopher said they were perfect.

Yummy! I love the sound of these.
Flint used to be the home of the best coney islands. A lot of them are gone now. I think they were popular because of all the GM factories. They would be open late for 2nd and third shift workers. I think the Greek or Macedonians started the coney islands. They didn't use just ground beef. I've seen recipes that they used beef hearts also.
