With its famous 60 foot tall neon sign, George's Coney Island has been serving outstanding hot dogs on the cheap in Worcester since the 1920's.

THE BEST DOGS ANYWHERE. Been going there since I was 5 with my Dad. I am now 77 and still get my chili cheese with onions. And told my kids to pack a couple in my casket.

I eat hot dogs all over Been to Pinks, and Hillbilly Dogs in WV, several in Chicago. The best I ever had was in Mount Pleasant Michigan at Dog Central restaurant. They've been on the Food Network. They grill their dogs. They get their natural casing dogs from Dearborn Meats (Detroit) and patterned their proprietary dogs after the Dearborn Meats "1927" dog, the dog that was sold at the old Tiger Stadium for eons. Mt Pleasant is the home of Central Michigan University, hence the name Dog Central. However, the owner, Paul McFall, decided to have all the regional dogs he could fit on his menu, which is extensive. So he has Detroit Dogs, Chicago dogs, Philli Dogs, Carolina Dogs, Seattle Dogs, and the only Sonoran Dog I have found east of the Mississippi. He also has a veggie dog. They are great dogs. Best seller is the Mac Daddy (macaroni & cheese + applewood smoked bacon) but my two favorites are the Popper Dog (cream cheese, apple smoked bacon, and jalapeños) and the Goober Dog (DC's proprietary chili, crushed dill pickles, crushed fritos and get this, peanut butter)...it's delicious.

We had "Harold's Coney Island" in Rock Island Illinois since the 1900's; the granddaughter ended up running the business then it finally colosed it's doors. It was like this place. First place all of my out of town family, and others headed for was Harold's as soons as the plane, train, or car hit RI. OH MY GOLLY what a wonderful joint. The poorest soul on earth could be setting next to the mayor, or a billionaire it didn't matter they both had had one goal and that was one of those wonderful dogs. Harold used to run them up his arm too, and as kids we thought that was so funny! He had only a few items on his menus, and they all were top shelf. Wonderful ham sandwiches. Miss those hot dogs, and that wonderful joint.

If you look up Flint Style Coney recipe you will find a recipe that is very similar, not the same recipe, but they look very similar and I'd like to try these. One little flavor trick that people miss in copycat recipes with coneys is that most places ground up the leftover grilled dogs from the night before and add them to the new chili sauce. So some recipes may call for ground up hotdogs, if not add a little liquid smoke, not much. Here's the recipe I kinda follow. Flint Style Coney Sauce (about 40 - 50 hotdogs worth) This sauce should be made a day head for best flavor. It's a dry Flint style sauce, not a sloppy chili dog, aka Detroit Style. 5lb Hamburger 1 8 pack of hotdogs, ground (optional) 1 1/2 cups finely diced onion 2 28 oz of canned whole peeled Tomatoes or diced 4-5 tablespoons Chili powder 2 tablespoons Cumin 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon Mustard 1 tablespoon Garlic powder 1 1/2 teaspoons Liquid Smoke 1/4 teaspoon Pepper (Optional) Since left over cooked meat isn't wasted in the restaurants, any leftover cooked hotdogs were ground up and added to the coney sauce made for the next day. 1lb of ground up Koegel vienna's can be used to replace 1lb hamburger. This will give that classic Flint Style Coney flavor. Don't have Koegels? Use the ones you like. Natural casings if you can find them. This is not the perfect taste recipe, That requires the cook to know the flavor to be obtained. Sometimes the tomatoes are bland and a little tomato paste is needed. Add, subtract or substitute to fit your own taste buds. Just remember that the full flavor of chili powder and cumin doesn't come out till the next day. Some chili powders have cumin in them and a salty flavor, be careful. That's why other recipes don't add it. You don't want it over powering the sauce, just a hint of flavor. The full flavor of cumin takes a while to come out. In large thick pot, add Hamburger, Onions, Pepper (no Salt), Brown and drain in wire colander for 5 min. to remove as much grease as you can. Pour Tomatoes in blender and blend just enough to eliminate any large chunks, about 10 sec. Pour over Browned Hamburger and add rest of ingredients. Cover and simmer on low heat for an hour, stirring often to prevent any scorching. You don't want all the moisture cooked out. Let cool. A 4 qt pot works great to give a 4 hour low simmer to bring out the flavors and even serve out of for a large event, but the grease will need to be ladle off the top after cooking this way. You don't want to serve a greasy coney. After Sauce has cooled, fill pint containers with sauce. Don't drain off any grease. Refrigerate what is to be used the next day and Freeze the rest. The grease protects the sauce from getting freezer burn. Next day preparation 8 Flint Style Coney Island Dogs. In large fry pan add pint of sauce, 1/2 cup water and 8 Koegel Vienna's. Simmer till dogs are cooked but not split and water is evaporated. Tilt pan to let any grease drain off. Scrape sauce up to the high side, you just want dry sauce on the dogs not grease, but it tastes good too. Steamed buns are best but slightly warmed in the microwave works too. (You don't want a stiff bun that breaks apart.) Add dog, sauce, mustard and diced sweet onion. You can wrap up coneys in wax paper and tinfoil to blend the flavors like an order to go. Let coneys rest for a few minutes. Then unwrap and bite into some Michigan greatness. Put any leftovers in the fridge. I like a cold one for breakfast the next morning and remember my childhood when Ma and Dad brought home Coney's.

"there's nothing like it anywhere else"......Umm, yeah there is. Many places in the NorthEast, Chicago, Texas, Cali, etc. make a version of this sauce with all having just a minor flavor difference. Growing up in Rhode Island, I have the taste for the New York System version of these dogs. But I do also like the Coney style and others.

Sorry but a true coney has to come from Detroit. The chili sauce is totally different. And in Detroit you never order a coney with chili and onion, you just order a coney. And if you are ordering for you and your mate, you just say "4 on 2" or "5 on 3", and that's it. Lafayette Coney Island is the mecca, with American Coney island coming in a very close second.
