What's on your hot dogs? (1 Viewer)

[Dr. Gobbler]

Organic Beef Hot Dog, Brown Mustard, Maui Sweet Onion.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

mustard

also anything but ketchup

 

[Tackling Dummies]

Whatever bun and mustard only.

 

[Premier]

Skyline chili, chopped onions and a dab of mustard.

 

[Tony Jabroni]

Guess I know what I'm gonna grill tonight.

 

[RBM]

These are great on hot dogs. All by themselves.

Thats my top choiceNext up would be relish, ketchup, mustard.

 

[pollardsvision]

Before getting into what's on it, we must recognize that what your dog is on is also very important.

I'll take a NE style top-loading bun, or lobster roll as some of you may call it. Lightly buttered and grilled, of course.

After that, I'm generally a chili, slaw, pickle and hot sauce kind of guy.

 

[Stoneys]

Horseradish mustard, onions, dill relish or dill pickles, and sometimes cheese or kraut.

Besides a grilled hot dog, my favorite way to cook the dogs is when they are cooked in a roaster/crock pot in sauerkraut. But they have to be cooked for hours

Dog: Has to be a natural casing hot dog, either grilled or steamed until they pop open. Rolf's Pork Store in Albany makes excellent footlongs. Also a fan of Hoffman's (Syracuse), Zweigle's (Rochester), and Sahlen's (Buffalo), the latter requiring a good char-grilling to give it the proper flavor (if you've been to Ted's in Buffalo, you already know this).

Roll: Either a New England style roll, toasted on the outside so the inside remains soft and can soak up the toppings a bit, or a larger brat style roll for when the toppings are loaded on.

Toppings: Mustard and chopped raw onion are necessary. Kraut or meat sauce are optional, but it's an either-or situation. Chopped kosher dills are great as well. Chicago style when the rolls are bigger, and not opposed to two dogs on the bigger roll.

Ketchup belongs on hamburgers and has no place on a self respecting hot dog.

I can't seem to find those around here.Around here, Hebrew National and Nathan's are considered "premium" and neither come with natural casings. I'm guessing most of the natural casings for dogs in this country end up in the Northeast and Chicago.

With the available local options, I generally just buy Sam's Beef Franks. $21 for 80 dogs that, imo, are just as good as Hebrew National and Nathan's.

 

[pantagrapher]

Vienna Beef Hot Dog with Mustard, Relish, Onion, Pickle, Tomato, Sport Pepper, & Celery Salt on a steamed poppy seed bun....

Best Dog on the planet

Sounds good, but aren't the two bolded ones a bit of overkill?

The neon green relish is sweet; the pickle is more salty and sour. It works.

 

[derek245583]

Skyline chili, chopped onions and a dab of mustard.

 

[derek245583]

Got some cheddar-wursts to grill up with my kids tonight....what should I put on those?

I am genuinely interested in the "slaw dog" and the bacon wrapped dog. Someone elaborate please....

Do I wrap it in bacon, then grill? Do I just lay bacon in the bun then put the dog on?

Also, how much slaw are we talking? Cant see the dog?

 

[madhatter]

Rotel dip made with velveeta and jimmy dean sausage in it, applied generously to a sausage is delightful.

Boarshead makes a natural casing hot dog, as do all organic hot dogs, and most of the smaller regional brands; try a different section of your supermarket.

My 'nacho king' recipe is rotel, velveeta (cubed), sausage (cooked) and chopped spinach (squeeze out water), nuked.

Ted's footlong with chili, onions, mustard, and pickle spears = my favorite hot dog on the planet. Side of onion rings is required too.I do enjoy the Chicago-style hot dog, but obviously can't find em around here unless I make them myself. I haven't put ketchup on a hot dog in what seems like forever.

 

[The Hank]

Spicy Mustard, Tabasco, Black Pepper, Onion, Relish, Crushed Red Pepper, Ketchup, Cheddar Cheese

See what I mean, even your food has to be phallic.

Check the deli section or find a good butcher shop to find natural casing dogs

 

[Wingnut]

lol @ people saying ketchup on a dog is wrong. If it tastes good, its right, knuckleheads.

My go to topping combos:

mustard, pickle spear, celery salt (or seed)

Ketchup, mustard, relish

Mustard, relish, chopped onions

mustard and kraut

All in: Ketchup, mustard, pickle spear, chopped onion and tomato, banana pepper, celery salt

 

[Usual21]

Motha F'N KETCHUP!!!

 

[grateful zed]

i have given up katsup.

 

[identikit]

Celery salt/seed fans...

I'd like to try this.

How much do you apply?

 

[Raider Nation]

Celery salt/seed fans...

I'd like to try this.

How much do you apply?

Lightly. About how you would put salt on one section of a corn on the cob.Also, add the celery salt ON TOP of the mustard... it sticks to it nicely. Then add the relish last.

 

[higgins]

Bottom of bun: mixture of mayo and a little bit of sambal (which is similar to sriracha).

Top: onions and dark mustard.

 

[dmac37]

Natural casing dog, the kind that you can feel & hear the skin snap

Deli whole seed mustard and grilled peppers

or

Chili, kraut & mustard

 

[Sea Duck]

Spicy mustard on one side, Heinz 57 on the other. Sprinkle with freshly chopped red onions.

One of the best tasting meals in Buffalo - and there is a LOT of good food in that town.

I've put green olives on dogs before. Not bad.

Sabretts are as good as Nathans, IMO.As far as natural casing dogs go, its tough to beat Kogels, but as far as I know they're only available in Michigan. But they are fantastic. Every time I visit I bring home a bunch of them.

Sabretts - Nathans - Hebrew National - Boars Head ... those are the only four brands I'll eat.Those four are so good, you almost forget you're eating a hot dog.

will have to give this a try. If i want hot dogs in North NJ i usually hit Jimmy Buffs, or this truck on Bloomfield ave in Newark(i forget the name).

 

[Wingnut]

I think its time to pull THESE out of the freezer for tomorrow.

Best. Dogs. Ever. The only reason I eat Nathans, Sabretts, etc is because I cant get these where I live.

 

[PinkydaPimp]

Also, sonoran hot dogs out in Tucson AZ are also quite epic.

http://www.roadfood.com/Reviews/Overview.aspx?RefID=6837

"You cannot see the actual frankfurter buried under the traditional panoply of condiments that grace a Sonoran hot dog. It is a beef link wrapped in bacon and grilled alongside other bacon-sheathed hot dogs in enough shed bacon grease that it virtually is deep-fried. Chopped tomatoes, raw onions, pinto beans, yellow mustard, hot jalapeno sauce and mayonnaise are especially artistic on BK's version. That's a roasted guero pepper in the foreground."

Chili and Cheese

hot slaw and bbq sauce

 

[Gopher State]

Better question what is in a hotdog?

Are hotdogs made from pigs' snouts and unused meat scraps?

 

[Riversco]

A mountain of onions. Some mustard.

 

[otb_lifer]

NYC street corners .. SABRETT'S are the one and only that I'll eat. Tried other brands all through my travels, but there is NOTHING like a dirty water dog slathered in brown mustard amd chili/onions.

 

[Jobber]

I'll only eat a few brands.Hebrew NationalBoars HeadNathan'sThose dogs seems to be much higher quality than all the other brands.

I hate Nathan's and love Hebrew National. Only mustard here and a ton of it.

Nothing but Heebs in our house. I'll be damned if some crappy Oscar Meyer or Bar-S makes it onto my grill.
