I grew up real close to Genes. Started eating Genes chili dogs as a young kid when I'd go there with my dad and uncle when my uncle was visiting. I'd go there for lunch in high school and eat a couple and chase it down with a cold beer. Yes they served me as the drinking age was 18 then and no one carded.
As for the sauce, I've never tried to make it. After the original owner died a gentleman by the name of Dick Ryan started making the sauce. Mr. Ryan has since passed and I haven't been since then so I don't know how close to the original it even is. But I am way past due for a visit to my old stomping grounds for a dog and a beer.
