The family outings to Coney Island were highlighted by mother's thermos of "barbecue" on bakery buns with sweet pickle relish . The only thing that could lure us away from the rides was our hunger pangs and the thought of that barbecue !

1 large onion finely chopped or ground {mom used her
2 cups carrots finely chopped or ground food grinder}
