    The Magic of a Coney Island Hot Dog in Casserole Form

    I’ve got to get something off my chest before we go any further. I’ve never actually been to Coney Island.

    While in college in western Maryland there was a little hole in the wall hot dog joint that served Coney Island Dogs.

    My roommate and I would go at least a few times a week and order more dogs than I care to admit to and begin devouring them. At the time my 18 year old self could handle a lot more carbs than my current self.

    Coney Island Casserole

    Keto Casseroles have to take a few Liberties with Tradition

    Now that I’ve decided to take the bread out of my diet I wanted to come up with a new way to enjoy this nostalgic favorite. Though I’m sure I will have some.

     Critics claiming blasphemy.  I feel like this recipe is the perfect ketofied casserole when I’m in the mood for a Coney Dog. It’s also the perfect one Skillet Recipe with a trusty 12″ inch Cast Iron Pan

    Coney Island dogs are traditionally all beef hot dogs but you can substitute whatever you like for this recipe.

    There are many uncured varieties of hotdogs available for those looking to avoid nitrates. When it comes to beef I do recommend going with a leaner cut.

    Because this recipe has a good amount of liquid you don’t want to have it end up too greasy. I recommend pouring off most of the fat before adding the other ingredients.

    You can always save the fat to sauté with your eggs or add to another recipe.

    Load up those Coney Dog Condiments

    Other than the chili sauce the condiments were always the best part. You can load up the dog with diced white onions, sauerkraut or a big squeeze of yellow ballpark style mustard.

    Since not everyone likes the same condiments I like to serve them on the side. Everyone can customize their own serving and have exactly what they want.

    Not sure if pickles or relish are traditional but I always like to serve this recipe with some pickle spears and nobody complains.

    Maybe I’ll ketofy it in an upcoming recipe. If you haven’t tried it yet, check out this Hamburger Skillet Recipe and Sloppy Joe Shepherds Pie as well.
