Method
Combine margarine and ground chuck and brown, breaking meat up as it cooks. Add 1 or 2 onions, garlic, salt, pepper, chili powder, mustard, tomato sauce and water. Cook slowly until thickened. While sauce is cooking, grind 4 or 5 of the hot dogs in a meat grinder (I used my food chopper). Add the ground hot dogs to sauce, stir and cook 15 to 20 minutes longer. If mixture seems too thin, add a few cracker crumbs. Heat the remaining hot dogs and put in buns. Top with sauce and optional onions.
Notes: These taste so wonderful, so much better than canned hot dog sauce. We even topped them with cheddar cheese! Enjoy!!
