July is National Hot Dog month in the states. The hot dog/frankfurter/wiener is eaten in many different ways depending on the region of the country you are from. Here in Gettysburg, we have a wonderful little hot dog place called The Dog House, which serves hotdogs in a variety of ways.
For example, my son's favorite, The Baltimore, has a hot dog, wrapped in fried bologna, with mustard, and saur kraut. (He likes his minus the kraut.) My husband's favorite is The Cashtown which has a sweet BBQ sauce and melted cheese. I had The Boston which serves the hot dog with baked beans and onion. The DC dog has mustard, ketchup and relish. That's the way I liked them when I was growing up. There are many, many more.
What is your favorite hotdog?
I like either Nathan's or Hebrew National hotdogs. I usually eat them with just mustard, but every now and then I like coleslaw on it too.
ReplyDeleteHubby likes them with mustard, chili, and coleslaw.
I like Polish sausage dogs with sauerkraut - yum...I could have one just about now.
ReplyDeleteWendy, are you from the southern US? I have never had one with coleslaw on it, but I hear they are popular there.
ReplyDeleteI am from NY, but I have lived in VA for the past 4 years. Some of the southern ways have rubbed off on me.
