Several of you were looking for a Teo's Sauce. My Dh is from Pittsfield, and loves their hot dogs with their sauce. I have come up with a close version...give it a try.
4 Hebrew National Hot Dogs (Or Wohrles' dogs if you can get them), ground fine
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
2 Tbsp of Catsup (if you like it sweeter use 4)
Water
1/2 medium onion diced fine
1 tsp. molasses
3/4 tsp. of prepared yellow mustard, French's works
1 tsp (or to taste) taco seasoning
1 1/2 to 2 Tablespoons Allspice (

The trick here is the allspice, it's what adds that unique taste to this sauce. You can vary the amount of molasses, depending on how sweet you like it. A little goes a long way.
First, grind your hot dogs, and dice the onion. Saute them together in a skillet. Add spices, molasses, mustard and catsup, with a small amount of water to blend the flavors. Simmer slowly until done.
That's it...hope you like it.
=BTW - Teo's serves them on steamed buns, with yellow mustard and diced onion.
