my sweet and smoky hot dog sauce
My husband loves chili dogs but the spicyness of the chili dog sauce does not love him. So in our house I need to find other ways to make flavor other than adding a lot of heat. I perfected this recipe over a few tries. The kitchen bouquet and the bacon give this is smoky flavor.
