I wanted to edit my recipe, but since I am not able to do so under my previous name, I found I am able to under my new name. When making this dish, I highly suggest using the following gingersnaps... Rippin Good or the Stauffer's brand. The Rippin Good Ginger Snaps can be found at Festival Foods, it comes in a 16-oz. box, and the Stauffer's Ginger Snaps can be found at Walgreens Drug Store, it comes in a 14 oz. bag. Recently I made this dish, but used another brand of store bought gingersnaps, and the gravy just didn't taste the same as it should. Also, years past I could make this using one of those brand name franks, but found those franks add more fillers to them, even though they say they don't, so now I find it's best to use a good quality brand of all-beef wieners. I now prepare this dish in my chicken fryer, and cook this over a high heat, until it comes to a boil and the gravy has thickened up, (in about 10 minutes) and after that, I lower the heat to a simmer, and cook/simmer the dish just a bit longer for another 10-15 minutes. One more thing I wanted to add... for this recipe you can use a small to a medium size onion; desired amount is up to you.
