This is my family’s favorite hotdog sauce! It is a little bit spicy! Yum! It also makes good sloppy joes, or “sauce dogs” for those who don’t actually like the hotdogs! LOL
Ingredients
  • 2 lb ground beef, browned
  • 1.5 cup onion, chopped
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 quart tomato juice
  • 1.5 cup ketchup
  • 15 oz tomato sauce
  • ⅛ cup brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 4 tbsp vinegar
  • ½ tbsp black pepper
  • ½ tbsp tabasco sauce
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
  1. Add browned beef and onion to water in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil, then turn temp down and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients, and simmer about 2 hours.
  4. Add more water if needed, during cooking.

Notes
This can also be cooked all day on low in a crockpot.

I know this seems like a funny thing to post after talking about dieting, but it’s not for me, honest!  LOL  My daughter asked me to type it up for her!  So here ya go, Heav!  :-)

I hope the rest of you enjoy it, too, of course!!!  Please let me know if you try it, and how you liked it!  Even if you didn’t.  LOL

Yes, yes, it’s another blog hop!  What can I say?  They’re addicting!!!  LOL  I suppose it could be worse.  I could be out doing drugs, or frying ants under a magnifying glass, or something.  So gimme a break!!!  ;-)

This hop was discovered at a lovely site called Create with Joy.  Isn’t that just a wonderful sentiment?  I thought so, too!  This hop is called Friendship Friday.  It ranks right up there with TGIF!  If you’d like to join, here is the button to go add your info!

One rule about joining is that you are supposed to talk about someone you’ve met through being part of the Friendship Fridays.  That will be a bit difficult for me, seeing as this is my first time.  So, I am going to say the person I’ve met is the creator of Create with Joy!  I can tell right off that she is just a lovely, sweet person!  Oh yes, I can just see her now, spreading love and sunshine where ever she goes!  We need more people like that in the world, if you ask me!  And I hope that we will get to be friends through our hopping!
Now, off you go, to make friends of your own, but I hope you will think about being my friend, too!  If so, please leave a comment and click on the Linky Follow thingamajig over there——>>>>>>!  Thanks ever so much!  Hope to see you again soon!
