Like many nostalgic foods with a cult following, the history of Coney Island sauce and where it originated is in dispute. Either Northern or Eastern immigrants–or maybe both groups–brought this recipe with them to the United States. The name may have stuck because they passed through Ellis Island, near Coney Island, to enter the United States and of course hot dogs ruled at this amusement park. Then, in the 1920s, at least two immigrants from Greece and Macedonia opened restaurants in Ohio and Michigan where Coney Island sauce was the shining-star ingredient. Most often, you find this sauce at ballparks and classic diners. The good news is that it’s super simple to make at home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This recipe is perfect for making over a campfire or outdoor grill but can also be whipped up indoors if you\u2019re not on a camping trip or the weather isn\u2019t suited for grilling out.<\/p>\n
