Hot Dogs

Just had our "gourmet" lunch at Costco - hot dog and soda.

Anyway, it got me to wondering --- what do you put on your hot dog?

As for us - and maybe it's because we're originally from New York --- mustard and sauerkraut (and relish maybe). Sometimes I see people putting ketchup on their hot dog --- I couldn't do that --- but it's not as bad as seeing people putting mayo on their hot dogs!!

I guess maybe it's a regional thing --- but I just wondered what you put on hot dogs. We make a joke out of watching what people put on -- and when we see mustard and sauerkraut we always say "oh they're from New York"

I'm a vegetarian so they're not really a food staple for me.  LOL  But now and then if hubby's grilling them for himself, I'll grill a veggie dog for me.  For me it's Dijon mustard and ketchup.  

How funny that ketchup on hot dogs seem so strange to you.  I think that's the only way we ate them growing up--ketchup and mustard.  I've never had one with sauerkraut on it!  

You might be horrified at the way hubby eats them--mayo, ketchup, relish, mustard, onions, jalapeños--everything but the kitchen sink goes in those babies....     

Mustard, sometimes kraut or shredded cheese. And it has to be Plochman's mustard.  I am from Denver and Arkansas.

Chili sauce and shredded cheese.  I don't eat them very often and when I do I get the Hebrew National ones.  I'm kind of funny about the mystery meat thing so I get the Kosher hot dogs.

Depends on what kind of dog, lol.

Just a a regular hot dog gets mustard, onions, and dill relish. NOT sweet relish, yuck! :lol3:

Bratwurst get brown mustard and sauerkraut.

I also love chili cheese dogs with mustard and onions... :anon:

Sometimes just mustard and sometimes hot dog sauce and onions.

Mustard and Relish.  Same with hamburgers.  I used to put ketchup on them decades ago, but now I rarely use it for anything but french fries.
 

For me it's just mustard on hot dogs

mayo on hamburgers

ketchup is for fries.

When I go to Mc Donalds, Wendy's I have to special order my burgers cause I hate mustard and ketchup mixed together.

Oh man; mustard and sauerkraut on a REAL good hotdog...mmmmm!!  Good stuff!  I try not to eat many hotdogs; but sometimes they are just so good!

But I enjoy them a variety of ways.  It just depends on my mood.  ketchup, mustard, and relish are things we keep on hand so likely to be used if we are home.  I don't often have sauerkraut on hand.  My Grandparents used to make their own so I guess I might be a bit of a snob in that department.  Some of the store stuff just doesn't hit the spot when that's what I want!

I don't eat hot dogs often. When I do, only Hebrew National---the others taste weird. For toppings I like raw onions, ketchup, and yellow mustard. I do like sauerkraut on a hot dog but it needs to be warmed up enough to not be too crunchy, and at home I'm too lazy to warm it up :tongue2:. So I only get kraut at a restaurant/stand that sells hot dogs. . .rare around here! Mostly when I'm traveling.

Nothing, never. :lol3: I don't like hot dogs.

Mustard and sauerkraut on kosher hot dogs for me. I'm originally from the Northeast, too (Philly).

We don't do hot dogs that often anymore, but sometimes Rick will get very hungry for a dog. He eats ketchup and relish. I like mustard and sauerkraut (although I was born in NC), which I think is just because of my dad. I have a recipe for New York Pushcart Onion Sauce that is pretty good and I'll make it when we have a lot of people in and we do dogs and brats and burgers on the grill.

Love my sauerkraut on brats and dogs! I got spoiled, though, although not from my grandparents. Our local Lions Club makes tons of sauerkraut as a fundraiser in the fall and I always buy several quarts from them. I try to get enough to see me through the year, bag it into freezer bags or freezer containers and throw it in the freezer. I just love sauerkraut mixed with a ton of mashed potatoes.

Oops.....hot dogs. Back on track. While we will do them in the microwave, we really like to grill them. Or stick them on a wire roaster and roast them over an open campfire. Then I will gladly eat hot dogs. 

Ugh .. no ketchup or may for me either

My preferred hot dog consists of a grilled piece of some form of Ekrich sausage, with mustard and sauerkraut.  Plain hot dogs for me are mustard and dill relish.  And. of course, the occasional indulgence in a Sonic foot long cheese coney that has chili, cheese, mustard and I always add jalapenos.  Sloppy good.  LOL

No ketchup, mustard or mayo.  I like chili beans with mine.  Also don't care for store-bought buns, Iike homemade bread.
