Hotdogs-What's your favorite?

[jgp12000]

I have been to Nathan's on Coney island & Pink's in L.A. which are great of course! Our local hot dog restaurant is Nu Way(1916). With these "Gut Rockets" you might have to develop a taste for, but for me it's hard  to eat only 3 ...The best description I can come up with is a red hot dog with this greasy chili made with fine ground beef & a tint of Cumin similar to Taco meat, onions, & mustard on a steamed bun. Listerine can't touch these guys & you will probably taste them for 3 days when your not on the "turlet" (Archie Bunker) The repercussions are worth it & you always go back for more. I am sure many of us will be grilling out July 4th & I do love a 50% burnt dawg, but Nu Way a.k.a. "Gut Rocket" is my favorite.

Memories of Sabrett Hotdogs of when I lived in NYC.  That was the brand sold from the street vendors.  Nothing beats the NY hotdogs with brown mustard and sauerkraut and/or mustard and onions.  The onions had a sweet and sour flavor.  I live in San Mateo, CA now and the closest to those hotdogs is Caspers Hotdogs.  Dominick

If I buy them at a store my go to is Caspers.

But we have a hot dot place near by, Weiner Works, which smokes any store bought dog!

Bar-S cheap dogs, Heinz Dill relish, brown mustard, thin sliced fresh tomatoes, Rainbow Buns, Walla-Walla Sweet diced onions.

BBQ'd with black lines.

If anyone knew what most hot dogs were made of —- they might not eat them.  They are delicious.  But I don't care.  We are already stocked and have company coming up for dogs🌭🌭, potato salad, deviled eggs, 4 kinds of chips, strawberry shortcake 🍓🍓, and watermelon🍉🍉.

Best, Fred

 Our first health inspector at our bar&grill was a inspector at a hot dog plant for a couple years. He said he never ate another hot dog after working at that hot dog making plant

Pink's is good, but my favorite was The Weiner Factory on Ventura Blvd.in Sherman Oaks, CA.  Sadly closed now.  Cupid's, also in the San Fernando Valley, has good hot dogs, as does the Vienna Beef stand in the meatpacking district in Vernon, CA.

Probably just me, but I don't see anything wrong with eating various animal parts put into hotdogs or sausage meats. The chemicals and excessive amounts of fat and salt is another thing, though.

Porkey's on the Island offers an easy 4 menu choice of Hawaiian influenced hotdog meals. But only once in awhile for me.
