Neva' a Lack of Weinee Joints in
Rhod'Dylin!
To make a great coffee cabinet
just get some coffee syrup (Autocrat, Eclipse, or Coffee Time;
all made by the same company now), dump it in a blender with
some milk and some good ice cream (coffee if possible), and whip
it good!
"Can't believe I just found

Recipe One
Fry hamburger
with onion, spices and margarine or shortening until the meat is
brown. Add the water, and continue to cook the meat mixture, while
mashing the hamburger into tiny pieces. Cook slowly until all the
water is dissolved. If the consistency is too thick, add more
margarine or shortening. Boil or steam the hot dogs. (use and all
beef hot dog as a replacement for the weiners). Steam the hot dog
buns by wrapping them in a paper towel, and place in microwave for
a few seconds on high. Place hot dog in bun, followed by mustard,
weiner sauce, finely chopped onions, and then celery salt. By now,
your kitchen should smell just like a true weinee joint!
1 lb. hamburger
3 Tbs. margarine
1 small onion
1 Tbs. garlic powder
1 1/2 Tbs. chili powder
1/2 Tsp. allspice
1 Tbs. salt

"I received
your E-mail from my sister, and I am still cracking up! I graduated from East Providence High in “66” and left
for the military. I returned for a 20 year reunion, but
that is all. I ponder many a night about the “weenie”
joint on, I believe Taunton Av. Across from the old
Central Junior High School. Many a night was spent in the
Bar across the street that had a band that played Chicago
better than Chicago. Then off to the weenie joint for six
dogs, a coffee milk and the ride home.
Thanks for bringing back some memories."

Recipe Two
This hearty, flavorful
wiener sauce is like the kind you'll
find in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. It may be frozen until
ready for use. Use premium grilled wieners cooked in butter,
steamed hot dog buns and the fancy mustard of your choice. Spread
with mustard, the sauce, chopped onions and celery salt... in that
order. If you have a delicate digestive system, use with caution.
Prep Time: approx. 20 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 1 Hour . Ready
in: approx. 1 Hour 20 Minutes. Makes 12 servings.

"A
friend of mine from RI now living in Florida forwarded me
your page that opened with the write up on Windas XP. I
thought I would piss my pants laughing. I also am a former
Rhode Islander, left there in 76 to go on to other things
but you brought back many memories. I go back far enough
to remember when I95 was being built through Providence
and didn't
have any potholes and 3 all the way were 25 cents. Now I
am a redneck in VA making my own version of weiner sauce.
Thanks for the
memories,
Bob
PS: you are now in
my favorite places" |
Directions
1 Place ground beef in a large, deep skillet. Cook over
medium high heat until evenly brown; drain.
2 Mix the chili powder, dry mustard, allspice, nutmeg,
onion salt, garlic salt, celery salt, ginger root, cumin,
Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce and ketchup into the skillet.
Simmer
at least 1 hour, until a desirable consistency has been
attained. Serve hot.

Recipe
"Tree"
Be warned - hot wieners are
addictive. They're also called "gaggers." There are two
explanations that are for the nickname. The first explanation is
that the aroma will make you gag (usually this happens to wiener
virgins). The second explanation is that they're so addictive,
you'll want to eat them until you're well beyond full. [eating
them until you gag]
1 lb. hamburger
2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. celery salt
Onion and garlic powder to taste
2 tsp. All Spice |
"I
actually took the recipe off the web last night, the third
one, and made gaggers for my husband,,,,a true RIer and
they came out just like he remembered! I can't wait until
I can make him some with your spices! He is in the army
and was in Iraq until just recently and he was really
wanting some true RI Gaggers! I am glad I could make them
for him. We have sent the link to all our friends...all
mostly from RI. Thanks so much!"

Put a little oil in a pan
and brown the hamburger, breaking it up into tiny pieces while
frying. Add rest of ingredients and cover mixture with water. Mix
water well and simmer until mixture turns red.

Recipe Four - For the Vegetarian!
"I loved the
taste of RI weiners, but I’ve become a vegetarian about 10 years back
and wieners are one of the things I really missed the most about that
decision. I have a product in the freezer that is made from soy product
but tastes very much like a hot sausage (it’s called Soyrizo) (no
fooling-it doesn’t have any of that fake tofu type flavor people
sometimes complain about-it really tastes good.
I followed your recipe for the weiner sauce
and substituted the soyrizo for the ground beef. I put the weiner
sauce over a veggie dog (Boca Brand) and it was fantastic. In fact,
I’ve been bragging your product up to a couple people today at work.
Anyway, I am sure I’ll be placing more orders for your product in the
not too distant future.
You’ve made a vegetarian very
very happy."
