1/2 lb. ground beef
2 to 3 tamales in tomato sauce
1/2 tsp. Accent
1/4 c. chopped onions

Smear on mustard and spoon on onions, then Coney Sauce.
As I was growing up in the city of Manitowoc, there was
a popular restaurant, operated by a Greek family, named Coney
Island. They were famous for their Coney Island's, especially
their secret sauce.
