So glad to find this recipe! I miss getting red onions on my hot dogs from NY. Haven't been able to get it since I left there. Thanks
I so miss the dirty water hot dogs with hot onions and cheese from Jersey & NY thanks for the recipe
These taste something like the NY hot dog onions I remember, but these taste soooo much better.
NYC hot dog pushcart vendors use cinnamon in their recipe??? Or pre-made? What's the brand?
Sabrett's makes and sells the onions in sauce and some of the best all beef hotdogs you'll ever eat.
You can buy them on Amazon, it's really good for out of a jar. Just search: Sabrett Onions in Sauce 16 oz
Thank you so much for this recipe; I miss the hotdog stands in NY and the onions with spicy mustard - YUM
This recipe is perfect! I grew up eating NYC pushcart Sabrett hotdogs & Onion Sauce … my Uncle had a Sabrett hot dog truck for years (40 years before food trucks become cool!) thanks for cracking the code — just can’t find this out of the tristate area.
