slo’s WEDNESDAY 5/11 poll - Hot Dogs

[luvmarypoppins]

I am not suppose to eat them for health reasons. They are way too high in sodium.

I like them, but don't eat them except for very occasionally because my family doesn't like them. I don't buy them-when I *do* have one, I like it grilled nearly black with a slice of American cheese. I'm trying to remember the last time I had one, and I can't.

 

[mrodgers]

Meh...

 

[Princesca]

I like them, but because they are generally so awful for you, I only eat them once or twice a year. And usually if I do, we try to get the Applegate ones or something similar that are marginally healthier. Sometimes though, I just have a craving for a fat chili cheese dog on a soft, white bun.

Hot Dogs are great, especialy with mustard or relish. I try not to eat them too often, but I still probably eat more than I should.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Love them. But don't have them a lot. Really never at home, but when I do have them, at any one of several great Chicago hot stands in the area. The dogs are always Chicago Vienna brand, but made to the specific recipes of the various stands and what spices and seasonings they want. Almost all come with fries, many piled on top of the dog. And Superdawg in in a class of its own.

Like them - don't eat them as much as I used to, but just enjoy one from time to time.

I'm not crazy about them but I like them!

I love the hot dogs that are locally made - Zweigles and Hofmanns. If you have a Wegmans near you try them. With some meat hot sauce - such a treat

 

[E&Cmom]

I liked them more when I was younger. I rarely have them now. I only like them grilled now.

They're okay. If I'm offered a hot dog or hamburger I would always go for the burger.

Am I the only person who calls them frankfurters???

Occasionally I buy Nathan’s or Sabrett’s all beef kosher franks. No vegetarian, no chicken or turkey, no low-end brands made with “mechanically separated chicken” or “partially defatted beef fatty tissue.”

And of course ketchup NEVER goes on a hot dog!!!!

We BBQ hotdogs in the summer on the Tragear. I buy from the local meat market who sells all beef dogs.

In the summer on the grill or boiled at a game with a steamed bun...

My grandmother called them that.

Ketchup,relish, mustard and if available onions.

or plain once and awhile.

 

[PrincessShmoo]

Honestly…..do you like hot dogs?

I like them well enough. They're in the freezer for those nights that I just don't have time or the inclination to create a whole meal. Usually cooked boiled, but grilled on occasion, I put mustard and relish on them.

I do like chili dogs better.

 

[LoveSpringsteen]

I like them and especially on the well done side and with ketchup and ballpark brown mustard. If we're grilling hamburgers, we will always grill hot dogs too.

There, fixed it for you

I like hot dogs. Boiled at home, or gently grilled (always tell DH not to burn them!), or cooked over the campfire. I like mine with ketchup, mustard, relish and sweet onions. Or chili sauce.
