The Perfect Hot Dog
when it comes to hotdogs and most other foods, my taste are pretty simple (I drink straight black coffee) .... what toppings do you like on a hot dog and where do you find it .... I like an all beef hot dog topped with yellow mustard, mayo, white slaw and onions ..... my source has long been Grill '57 ===> http://www.grill57.com/ <=== .... it is located on the south side of Raleigh it is a throwback restaurant that plays music from the '50's & '60's .. .. its all beef, foot long hotdog (#7 on their menu) is the standard against which I judge all other hot dogs .... so far, in all of our travels, I've never found one as good, much less any better .... if/when you are in the area and enjoy an atmosphere that will take you back to much simpler times, give it a try

Re: The Perfect Hot Dog
For me it is a redskin hot dog with the skin that snaps when you bite it. Cover that in chili, onions, and mustard. And the bun needs to be soft and fresh.

Re: The Perfect Hot Dog
My favorite way to eat hot dogs is slice two and put them in a can of pork and beans with sauteed onions and mushrooms and some brown sugar. Comfort food at it's best. I loved fixing a pot of beans and hot dogs after a long day diving the river in the winter. Let it simmer while I take a nice hot shower to get the river funk off me and warm me up. Doesn't get any better than that.

Re: The Perfect Hot Dog
In the north country, I really like Glaziers. Across from Paul Smith's college a fellow sells these "Michigan style". I must admit they are good.
I like a nice natural casing dog with onions and german mustard. Soft bun is a plus.

Re: The Perfect Hotdog
I prefer Kosher hot dogs, too, though with spicy brown mustard, either sweet pickle or hot pepper relish, and finely chopped onions. I also like the bun to be buttered and toasted on both sides. It might be on the lunch menu today.Henry88 wrote:Kosher or Nathen's with kraut and mustard

All beef hot dog, sliced down the center, insert a slice of string cheese, wrap in bacon, broil it so it's healthy for you, bakery bun, Heinz Ketchup. Wow
