Sauces and Seasonings

J Dawg's Special Sauce
3/4 cup ketchup
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Mix ingredients together in small saucepan. Stir and cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Boil one minute; allow to cool before pouring over criss-cross cut hot grilled hot dogs. (The criss-cross allows the sauce and all the other condiments to get down deep into the hot dog, instead of just sitting and slipping off the surface. Also, USE ALL BEEF HOT DOGS for best results.)

Lawry's Taco Seasoning (Copy Cat)
I would probably ten times this to have a homemade bulk supply.

1 tablespoon flour
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon minced onion
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon oregano

Combine all ingredients in bowl. Use like you would one packet of seasoning mix. If you make a bulk batch, store extras in an airtight container. To prepare meat for tacos, according to the directions on the package... add one batch of seasoning to one pound ground beef or shredded chicken. Fill tacos as you would.



Salad Supreme Seasoning (Copy Cat)
I would probably ten times this to avoid having to make it again and again.

1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon poppy seeds
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon coarse black pepper
