Ever have Vienna hot dogs? Puts Hebrew to shame.

I also like Boars Head.
No, unless I had them at a hot dog stand or something. I don't think I've seen them in local stores, though I haven't looked that closely.

Can't get them here either. I've asked the manager at Publix, to no avail. So, I settle for Boars Head.

Gourmet hotdogs?  Huh.  They all taste the same to me, the bun makes a bigger difference to me, along with toppings, but I rarely eat them nowadays.

A really good bun is really good.

Try a Hebrew National or Nathan's compared to say a Oscar Meyer classic. They do not taste the same, aren't even particularly similar.

I always throw a pack of hot dogs on when I'm smoking something. "For the kids" even though I always sneak one or two. Don't even need a bun. Though yeah, a steamed bun with some onions and mustard...

I've had both types.  I probably load a hot dog so much I don't taste the hot dog.  I like kraut on a dog.  But as I said, I eat maybe 2 a year.

We have a "fantasy camp reunion" at the Braves' game Sunday and they will have dogs and burgers (usually not very good).  They have a "suite" for us.  It's not very deluxe to me, it's really a conference room.  I might have a dog there, and some cheap beer.

Add relish and sport peppers and you've got a masterpiece.

I get one at Costco once a year or so, it's not really a hotdog, more like some kind of sausage thing.

They used to have kraut.

I go for onion/kraut/mustard, and hopefully a really good bun.  It can be a turkey dog and it won't matter to me.

Some people just don't like it. I think it's great, but I'm a pickle freak.

I don't relish, um, relish.

I like pickles.  On a dog, I go for something more acidic I think, less sweet.  I'd put some jalapenoes on one.

I like onion/kraut/mustard.

Usually around here it's chili, onion, mustard, jalapenos, and shredded cheddar cheese.

The Best Hot Dog Brand: A Blind Taste Test | Bon Appétit (bonappetit.com)

Not Just Any Hot Dog: Nathan's
The ingredients: beef, water; contains 2% or less of salt, sorbitol, sodium lactate, natural flavorings, sodium phosphates, hydrolyzed corn protein, paprika, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate, sodium nitrate.
The verdict: Nathan’s hot dogs got high marks from every taster, and they were quickly deemed our favorite. Their intense, beefy flavor and lovely sparks of garlic made this brand stand out from the competition. Youngman described the dog as “juicy but not pasty,” and Avalle predicted that Nathan’s would be a crowd pleaser at any cookout. It would appear she’s correct—the dish full of Nathan’s hot dogs was the only one left empty at the end of our taste test, after our tasters went back for seconds and thirds.
