How do you take your hot dog?

Looks pretty good... The only thing is I can never get into that tomatoes on the hot dog thing. Just give me some chopped onions and spicy mustard and I'm a happy camper.

Wow, that sure is a lot of work to eat a hotdog...

that's why I'd do a bisquik or similar version - I think a hot dog tornado would be fun

hot dogs are mostly condiment carriers for me - so having the bun baked right into the dog makes it simpler

What is a hot dog tornado?
For me a nice steamed fluffy bun is 50% of the equation when I eat a hotdog. If it's a good quality bun sometimes I use absolutely no condiments whatsoever. A nice poppy seed bun comes to mind.

generally , in food terms , a tornado is something that has been spiral cut. potato tornados are probably the best known




someone came up with the idea of spiral-cutting a hot dog or sausage and wrapping dough around the spiral - they're generally deep-fried, but there are some recipes where they're baked/grilled/bbq'd

Hebrew National or Nathan's?

Nathan's first. Then Hebrew National. Are there other kinds?

Well I prefer Hebrew National over Nathan's I've been told that Boars Head is pretty good but I haven't tried it yet... also Ballpark hot dogs score pretty good


Has anyone ever had the chili cheese dogs at Der Wienerschnitzel? When I lived in the southwest I used to love them I could eat 6 at a time they weren't very big. I can't get them out here in New York
