    growing up in west virginia in the 50s and 60s i didnt know anything about slaw dogs or chilly dogs. when you ordered a hot dog then it came with mustard, onion, chili, and cole slaw unless you wanted it otherwise. i could get two and an RC cola for .45 cents and have a nickle left over to play the pin ball machine with my lunch money, sorta miss those times.

    Hebrew Nationals are good, but with only seven weenies to a package you end up with a left over bun. The old Oscar Meyer beef franks are what I grew up eating and to me they still taste like a hot dog should. Farmer John brand, which was very popular in SoCal (Dodger Dogs) are also good. I like hot dogs and eat them often.

    It is not like anyone is allowed to diverge from the party line without his character being attacked, but at the risk of that, Bar-S the best franks, and come in 3 pound (single serving) packages. :D

    Never was Mark, I thought it unfair to compete against amateurs. But the diet worked, I now wear Wrangles with a 32" waist, so I might have been kidding.

    Cloverdale red franks for me, sacrificed to the carbon gods over a campfire, and don't skimp on the ketchup and mustard.

    Vienna Hot Dogs for me. Vienna = the true Chicago Hot Dog. My uncle was a VP for Vienna while when I was younger.

    Sadly Vienna is not sold in Missouri or Arkansas. I'll eat Sam's Club - Nathan's as there is little other choice.

    Hot dog snobs seems an oxymoron akin to triple axle luxury living.

    All of the national brands of hot dogs went down the tubes IMHO back when they started putting chicken and turkey meat (or feathers) into their products instead of the mixed beef and pork. They claim it was healthy-er and maybe true, but the taste suffered greatly.

    No, you steam it in beef-onion broth. :D

    You've not had the last word on 'dogs until you try making chili with them (instead of plain beef or pork). Ewwwwww!

    You've not heard the last word on 'dogs until you nearly eliminate processed meats (and processed foods in general), nitrates, MSG, and stop eating out. Then take one bite of a hot dog. The first reaction will be how SALTY they are.

    You never appreciate a 'dog and a Coke as much as you will until carrying a pair of golf bags for 2.5 hours for arseholes on a sweltering day, then being given this snack during an overdue 15 minute break.

    Sabretts or Nathans are by far, the best. If you have not tried them, you should. No comparison.

    I am not opposed to any of the Johnsonville Brats, variety either. They rock! (Probably the best.) [But] Are they "Hot dogs?" Ahh.......................................No.

    Oscar Meyer all beef dogs, are not too bad either. (What I just had on my "Slaw Dogs.")

    Buy one, get one free. Grabbed a couple.

    Not a dog snob, nor do I live in a "triple axle luxury home." :o
