Adolph's Hot Dog Sauce

15 years ago if you wanted a great hot dog in the Bend Area, you would stop at the end of the Pomeroy-Mason Bridge.  At the foot of the bridge, on the Pomeroy side, there was a small drive-in restaurant.  Many of us remember and miss Adolph's Dairy Valley.  Here's the recipe for their amazing hot dog sauce.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs Hamburger, browned
• 2 cups Water
• 2 cups Ketchup
• 1 tbs Worcester Sauce
• 5 tsp Chili Powder
• 1 tsp Granulated Garlic
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Pepper
• 1 tbs Dried Onion
• 1/2 cup Sugar (optional)

Directions

1. Brown beef with salt.
2. Add water, dry ingredients and Worcester Sauce.  Bring to a boil.
3. Once boiling, add ketchup, and turn down to simmer.
4. Simmer 1.5 hours, stir every 15 minutes, and skim off grease repeatedly.
