Question of the Day -Tuesday, August 11

Hello hello! 







What do you like on your Hot Dog?
 

I am pretty standard - mustard and ketchup!  But on the odd occasion, I enjoy bacon and melted cheese on top. Just on occasion, after all I have to protect the arteries   but mighty tasty.

Usually just put ketchup and mustard on it.

Brown mustard and a wee bit of sauerkraut.  I can dispense with the 'kraut but the brown mustard has to be on it.  No other kind.  Just not the same.

Usually mustard and relish or sauerkraut.

More often than not  nothing. Occasionally onions and jalapenos. I like sauerkraut but I eat it on the side and not on the hot dog itself. I have been known to put horseradish on one too sometimes. It's good believe it or not. I love the spiciness of it. I'm not a big fan of mustard except the hot mustard that Chinese restaurants serve (NOT the stuff they give out in the packets. The fresh stuff) and I hate ketchup. I think it ruins anything it touches.  

A basic hotdog I have has mayo, mustard and ketchup.

If I want to go all out I will add chili, onion and sauerkraut.

My DH used to put mayo on them too- and ketchup. I'd never seen anyone use mayo on one before but he liked it. 

I do like chili with them also- but on the side. Weird I know. I have this thing now where I don't like a lot of foods touching each other.

I know how that is. My BF don't like certain foods to touch either. It all depends on what he's eating. He loves pickle relish on his . I think that's just nasty.

I need a good hot dog a couple times a year.  My favorite is with sauerkraut and mustard!   But it really depends on my mood and I don't always have sauerkraut on hand.  I enjoy them just with ketchup, mustard and sweet relish.  Or just mustard and relish  I know some places get fancy and it looks good.  There probably are very few ways I wouldn't enjoy it.  But since they are a treat food; I'll go for my good ol sauerkraut standby.  

Ketchup and relish.  Yummy!

Baked beans are good on hot dogs, too.

I usually have Cincinnati style chili and shredded sharp cheddar on them.  That is the only way I like Cincinnati style chili.  I actually, other than this, don't care for the whole cinnamon meat thing.

Great question. Mustard and sauerkraut on a hot dog! (we're from NY). Maybe a little relish. Ketchup? - no way -- and mayo - absolutely not! I remember watching Clint Eastwood in one of his Dirty Harry movies and in one scene his remark was "anyone who puts ketchup on a hot dog should be shot".!

We were just in Costco today and had a hot dog for lunch. I always watch the people there to see what they put on their hog dogs. We always say that anyone who uses ketchup is not from NY - and anyone who uses mayo -- well they must be from outer space! (don't mean to insult anyone).

No offense taken. I grew up eating hotdogs like that. I don't have to have mayo but if there isn't anything else....there BETTER be ketchup!!!!  Maybe it's a Southern things, who knows...LOL

One thing I think is nasty is putting slaw on hotdogs.....slaw is a side dish, not part of the main course.

I don't care for slaw on hot dogs but I do like it on pulled pork sandwiches.

The only time I eat hot dogs is from food trucks and not very often. I don't really know what to put on it so I just pick the condiments that look freshest and not all picked-over. I stay away from sauerkraut that never seems to be good.

i like either yellow mustard or brown mustard on my hot dogs. while i like ketchup, and pretty much all tomato-based foods, i don't like it on hot dogs. i don't mind some sauerkraut with the mustard, though i don't usually have an open can of it on hand. when i make hot dogs at home, i never use hot dog buns with them though sometimes i'll use a slice of bread for the bun.

I only like ketchup on hot dogs and I only like hot dogs fried.  I love a bun that's toasted with butter!  My mother loved hot dogs with mustard and celery salt.  She was from Rhode Island, I don't know if that is a regional thing.  I used to work in Rhode Island and when I went for lunch, the waitress always called the hot dog a wiener.  Just minutes north in Massachusetts, we just call them hot dogs.

I'd go along with baked beans. Yum. (Did you ever cut a nice hunk out of a Vidalia (or other sweet) onion and then fill the hole in the onion with baked beans? And then you grill the onion with the beans. Good stuff.  )

I love sauerkraut on hot dogs and on brats. Or lots of caramelized onions (and I've been known to throw a couple peppers in the mix, too).  Or cheese. Right now, my favorite is the zucchini sweet relish we just made. Oh, and ketchup and mustard. Rick wants ketchup; I usually slather mine with mustard.

Oh! And there's the New York Push-Cart Onion Sauce that is just delicious on hot dogs. Can't forget that. I will make that sometimes, too.

I like mayonnaise on one side, brown mustard on the other side, sweet onions, sweet pickle slices and coleslaw is I have some. And for the poster who said folks using mayo must be from outer space, no I am not. But I am from the Deep South. :lol3:
