1-1/2 lbs ground chuck, sirloin or buffalo
5 hot dogs in natural casings
1 Tbs vegetable shortening
1 Tbs unsalted butter
6 fl oz beer
8 oz can tomato sauce
2 Tbs Joe Perry’s Rock Your World™ Boneyard Brew hot sauce
Kosher salt
Ground pepper
Brown the ground meat in a medium saucepan till tender. Remove the pan from the heat, dump the meat into a colander to drain, and push on it with the back of a spoon to remove as much grease as possible. Dump the drained meat back into the cooled saucepan.
Use an old-fashioned hand meat grinder or a food processor to grind the hot dogs fairly small. Add the ground hot dogs to the ground meat in the saucepan. With the exception of the Joe Perry’s Rock Your World™ Boneyard Brew and the salt and pepper, add the rest of the ingredients. Place the saucepan on the stove and heat the sauce over medium heat. Once it starts to simmer, cover the pan, reduce the heat and let the sauce gently simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
At the end of the 20 minutes add the Joe Perry’s Rock Your World™ Boneyard Brew and salt and pepper to taste. Cover the sauce, and let it simmer gently again for another 10 minutes before serving. Serve on grilled or sautéed natural casing hot dogs in steamed or grilled buns with a squiggle of mustard and some chopped onion.
