Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Here's a quick meatless alternative to a classic Coney Island sauce. The blend traditional ingredients minus the meat gives this sauce a familiar taste that many will appreciate.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 white onion
1 clove garlic
1 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon mustard
1 dash worchestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Preheat a small saucepan over medium heat with vegetable oil. Cut onion in a small dice then add to pan. Saute for 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, mince garlic then add garlic to onion and saute for another 2 minutes. Add ketchup, mustard, Worchestershire, and cayenne.
Bring to a simmer and continue cooking covered with a lid for an additional 10 minutes. Serve hot or cold as a topping for hot dogs.

This is the bomb - I wanted a sauce without the mince beef and this is it. Tastes like hungry jacks sauce! (Aussie Burger King). Thanks!
I have not tried yet but planning on it. It looks really good and easy to make. I want to add to the person that mentioned Worchestershire sauce. Kroger brand has no anchovies in if a vegetarian wants to make it.

Really good but needs chili powder after adding it it's great
It MAY be "meatless" but it is NOT VEGETARIAN. Worchestershire sauce contains anchovies!
No one is claiming it's vegetarian. The typical coney island sauce contains meat - this one doesn't. Hence the name.

I made this following the recipe, but made a few changes. I used spicy brown mustard instead of yellow. Added some hot sauce and chili powder. Excellent! Put on cooked hot dog, in a bun, topped with sauce and fresh cut onions, slice of cheese, and put under the broiler until the cheese melted. Yummy!!

This is so easy to make. The only change I make is to add a good amount of hot sauce. My DH LOVES this.
