How To Make doggie essentials: hotdog awesome sauce

• 
  Step 1
  PREP/PREPARE
• 
  Step 2
  You will want a large skillet with tall sides, or a good pot to make this recipe.
• 
  Step 3
  This entire recipe relies on cooking at a low-and-slow temperature. Anything above a simmer is to high. The reason for this is that it gives the ingredients a bit of time to meld their flavors. As a matter of fact, assuming you can spare the time, if you allow it to cool down, stick it in the fridge, and then reheat it the next day, it tastes even better.
• 
  Step 4
  Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 
  Step 5
  Gently toss the meats together, taking care not to compress them.
• 
  Step 6
  Add the three meats to a skillet or pot over medium-low heat, cook for 15 – 20 minutes.
• 
  Step 7
  While the ground meats are slowly cooking, add the dry spices to a bowl and reserve.
• 
  Step 8
  When the ground meats are nice and browned, add the onions and garlic.
• 
  Step 9
  Combine and slowly simmer for 15 – 20 minutes.
• 
  Step 10
  Add the dry spices.
• 
  Step 11
  Combine with the ground meats and cook for 3 – 4 minutes.
• 
  Step 12
  Add the tomato and hot sauces and stir for about 2 – 3 minutes.
• 
  Step 13
  Add the beef stock and coffee, then stir to combine.
• 
  Step 14
  Turn the heat down to the lowest simmer you can manage, and let the sauce cook until reduces it by about half, and thickens, about 30 – 45 minutes.
• 
  Step 15
  While the sauce is simmering taste and add a bit of salt and pepper, to taste. But remember that the sauce is reducing, so the salt you add at the beginning will be more concentrated at the end… be careful with the salt.
