The unique thing is, it contains no tomato products.<br /><br />Amos ‘n Andy Chili<br />From the Durham Herald-Sun in 2003<br />INGREDIENTS:<br />2 Pounds of hamburger/divided<br />1 Quart of water<br />1 Medium onion-grated<br />5 Cloves of garlic-crushed<br />2 Tablespoons of chili powder (adjust to taste)<br />1 Tablespoon of cumin<br />1 Tablespoon of paprika<br />2 Teaspoons of salt<br />1 Teaspoon of ground cayenne pepper (optional-adjust to taste)<br /><br />Place a pound of the hamburger in a saucepan with the water, and squish it to form a slurry. Crumble the other pound of hamburger in a frying pan, and brown well. Remove the meat to the saucepan, and sauté’ the onion and garlic in the remaining grease for about five minutes. Place onion, garlic, grease, and all the spices in the saucepan with the slurry. Bring to a boil, then turn back and simmer for 2½ hours, until consistency is right for spreading on a hot dog. You can also prepare this in a Crock Pot, instead of a saucepan, using 4 hours on high, or 8 hours on low.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13750562512439276503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134781477586899995.post-14310373815324678842018-10-03T12:56:53.614-04:002018-10-03T12:56:53.614-04:00The original site was half a store front, to the r...The original site was half a store front, to the right of a barber shop.

There was a young man named Lawrence (I think) was the man that prepared the hotdogs; and, he would literally have a string of hotdogs dressed from his hand all the way up his arm to the shoulder. I have never seen anything like it before. He was not the owner when I first came to the cafe; however, he was so good at preparing the hotdogs (and he was fast too) that, the owner of the cafe left the business to him when he retired--I was told. I used eat 6 of the hotdogs (w/chili, mustard, and onions) every time I ate there. Durham, being the home of Duke University, the cafe had photos on the wall in the cafe of some of the Duke Football Team challenging each other in who could eat the most. There was small bar to be served the dogs that would seat about 8 people; and a small room in the back with tables & benches. Many times I would have take out the dogs because their not enough room in the cafe for everybody at certain times of the day. I have very fond memories of the cafe, especially with my Dad, who knew the owner. I am trying to find a Amos & Andy Chili Recipe; the one mentioned above in this forum is fine; but, it does not tell how to mix the ingredients, and how long to cook. If anyone knows recipe and how to prepare the chili; I would appreciate it very much.
