Al Roker learns the history behind Detroit's iconic coney hot dogs | Family Style

What’s in a name? In the case of a Coney Island hot dog, it might be confusion! Al Roker visits Motor City to dive into the history of the Detroit delight (a hot dog topped with spiced chili, onions and mustard) with a New York name and Greek genealogy. He meets the owner of the longest-running family-owned Coney Island restaurant in Detroit, American Coney Island. Then it’s off to a family-owned bakery that makes the hearty steamer buns for these hot dogs. Finally, Al visits the city’s first vegan coney spot, CMO, for a unique twist on the classic.
