OT but timely, What is the best hot dog?

[mhshuskies]

Don't eat too many hotdogs. Best I've had though is the Hebrew Nationals. However if I'm having a cookout I'm making Brats, not dogs.

Hebrew National because they answer to a higher authority

Grote & Weigel are very good. Mucke's are as well.

And you definitely need split-top buns.

throw in Nathans as well, they are similar to Grote & Weigel... plus Mucke's and Grote are local

I was introduced to Deutschmacher hot dogs here at work when we have our customer bbq's during the summer. I have to admit they are REALLY good. From what I can see their distribution is limited pretty much to the Northeast. I found them at LaBonne's Markets in Watertown and at Stop & Shop. It originally was a small independent but I understand now they are part of Kayem. Pretty yummy doggies!

What's your favorite?

My home made brats out of venison and pork.

Brown dogs are local dogs and local dogs are fresh?

Not to be outdone, the diamondbacks introduced the $25 "D-Bat Dog", an 18" corn dog stuffed with bacon and cheese...

My arteries hardened just looking at that. I see they had to clear out the rest of the row just make room for the dog!

Anybody know Capitol Lunch in New Britain.

While I think Capitol Lunch is a cool place, I thought the dogs were nasty. I swear I could actually taste the meat by-products.

Augie & Rays is so much better.

Zweigles pop open white hot dogs.
Nothing comes close.

Curious about your venison and pork brats? Would you be willing to share your recipe?

I left Syracuse, NY over 40 years ago, but when I visit my wife's relatives, we stock up on Hoffman's hot dogs to bring home. They are the best! We also visit the venerable Heid's Hot Dog Stand near North Syracuse. I'll bet Stewie has been there many times in her past.

Dunno why I came back into this thread when Im hungry I need to call my mother to make sure she buys Hebrew Nationals for the 4th. I dont want to be stuck eating Ballpark franks or some other lowly brand Mind you I aint gonna pass up a ballpark frank.... but if im gonna be eating 3,4,5 hot dogs.... id rather them to be Hebrew

Don't remember the name of restaurant but it is on the Berlin Turnpike.They sell 2 foot Grote and Weigel hot dogs!My favorite!

I wish my mother read the boneyard....... i made the call.. and she had already purchased Ballpark franks

It could be worse; Your mother could have purchased Oscar Mayer hot dogs. As a consolation, Ballpark franks are very good in franks and beans; and if you boil them you can use the water to season vegetables;

Ballpark franks??? Your kidding, right?

Doogies. They also have an associated place on the Vernon/Manchester line on RT 30.

I have 2 Hebrew National Knockwurst franks for lunch every Saturday! As a Jew born in the Bronx, (Grand Concourse) NY I loved the Hebrew National Jewish Deli around the corner on Tremont Ave. With Dr. Browns CREAM SODA, a salami knosh, new pickle, or a 3" high Hot pastrami on rye sandwich, now that's heaven!
Up in CT now when I go to UCONN WBB at Gampel they sell LITTLE BROWN MISSILES OF DEATH (hot dogs)! You can't get a really good meal at Gampel! I sneak SUBWAY in!

Hey..... it wasnt my decision... I doubt my mother buys more than one pack of hot dogs per year. Trust me... I'll have a sit down discussion with her later today explaining why she should have gotten Hebrew Nationals

 

[Kibitzer]

On AOL today, there was a slide show -- "75 Best Hot Dogs -- and it included mouth-watering photos plus detailed descriptions of the dogs and a little history) I liked "I Dream of Wienie" and "Mustard's Last Stand" among many clever names.

Two local (for me and others in Fairfield County) hot dog emporiums were highly rated: Rawley's and Super Duper Wienie, both in Fairfield.

I will vouch for Super Duper Wienie (so will Guy Fieri), especially the New Englander. Tonight we will watch Boston Pops/Fireworks and knock down a few of them.

BTW, Pepe's Apizza was on the Food Channel Monday night as #4 in the country.

Today is National Hot Dog Day... just found out a few minutes ago... had no idea that I shared my birthday with such a revered holiday. I had not bought hot dogs in years... was in the store this morning and bought two packs of hebrew nationals. I didnt realize they were so expensive compared to the competitors.... 6.99 for a pack of 7... but they had a buy one get one free sale so 2 packs for seven buck is a great deal

Crif Dogs on St. Marks between 1st and Ave. A. Order the Tsunami. It's a hot dog wrapped in bacon and served with pineapple chunks. The best hot dog I've ever had.
