In Response To: ISO: Wienerschnitzel Chili (Chef Fred)

Chef Fred, I too have been searching for Der Wienerschnitzel's "secret" recipe for years!
The closest I've come (and it's actually very close) is a tip I recieved from Pat last month on this website. She told me to get Stater Brothers
(a grocery store chain) brand mild chille with no beans.
reluctantly, I made the purchase, and to my surprise,
is was almost as if I had been to Der Wienerschnitzel.
Use american cheese slices on the chille dogs, and grated sharp cheddar on the chille fries.
(It makes a big difference) Also, use the softest hot dog buns you can find, and steam your hotdogs if possible.
(another tip I acquired from this website) Good luck, and if you ever come across the actual recipe,
remember I'm out here wanting it too! Dawn. P.S. If you don't have a Stater Brothers store in your area,
try Albertson's store brand. They are almost identical in flavor

i can assure you that this is not the recipe for wienerschnitzel's chili...WIENERSCHNITZEL can't even get the recipe after 30 years of effort to buy out the recipe and even the company that owns the recipe! Even though Wienerschnitzel owns the rights to it, they do not have actual access to the recipe!

Here's one for the chili sauce that has been posted here regularly. I've never been to a real Weinerschnitzel so I don't know if it's close or not.

Weinerschnitzel's Chili Sauce
Recipe By :Gourmet Magazine

2 Cloves Garlic -- Minced
1/2 Cup Onion -- Minced
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Lb Ground Beef
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
1 Tbsp Prepared Mustard
1 Tbsp Vinegar
1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 tsp Tabasco
1/4 Cup Ketchup
1/2 Cup Tomato Juice -- (1/2 to 1)

1. In a large heavy skillet cook garlic and onion in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until onion is softened.

2. Add beef and cook, stirring and breaking up any lumps with a fork, until cooked through. Drain off any excess fat if desired.

3. Add remaining ingredients, adding just enough juice to create a spoonably loose but not soupy mixture. Simmer sauce, stirring occastionally, 10 min.

Makes enough sauce to top 6 hot dogs.

NOTES : When you are topping a hot dog or hamburger with chili sauce, it is vital that the consistency be uniform --no meat chunks allowed-- and it is traditional among the nation's hot dog chefs that the beef be nearly pulverized. If you cannot grind your own, see if you can have a butcher make an extra-fine grind for this recipe (inspired by The Varsity's chili), thus sparing you the embarrassment of topping wieners with a lumpy sauce.
