From classic franks to artisan wieners with toppings like kimchi, here are the nation’s best hot dogs.
Senate Restaurant; Cincinnati
Chef Daniel Wright has received national accolades for his playful takes on pub food, including a regularly changing menu of hot dogs like the Croque Madame (Black Forest ham, poached egg, béchamel) and the Lindsey Lohan (goat cheese, caramelized onions, bacon, arugula and balsamic vinegar). senatepub.com

I’m all about the standard wiener, mustid and onions! YEAH dirty water dogs!!
In Columbia SC which is home, there is a start up called Wurst Wagon. A husband and wife outfit that I found by chance at some running event my wife went to.
I usually don’t care for sausage that much but I love theirs. The schnitzel is really good and the potato salad is some of the best.
They do a good business and stay mobile. They bought a van to outfit recently.
I love ketchup on hot dogs.
.......with a yoohoo.
Neither of the things pictured are Hot Dogs.......
back to hot dogs...Oscar Meyer had a hot dog called "New York Deli Style" last year which was heavenly but not sure they make them anymore...
Gout likes weiners
Top two imho:
The Chicago dog using Vienna Beef frank and a Coney Island from either the Lafayette or American in Detroit (do either still exist?).
Yeah, Chicago is dogtown handsdown. My fav is Johnnie’s in Elmwood Park out west on North Avenue. And the gold medallions and hairy chests and Italian ice on a hot summer night add to the ambience.
Nathan’s or Hebrew Nationals. On a grill. Bun. Mustard. Relish. Done.
My dad was from Chicago and I learned at an early age that a hot dog is allowed to have mustard - Plochman’s for a preference - and onion and relish and a pickle spear. Sliced tomato as an option. Celery salt as an option. Nothing else. According to family legend he threw out one of my sister’s boyfriends for asking for ketchup.
Vienna Beef rules. I cant find many places in Atlanta that serves them but if I do they charge a hell of a lot for them.
Gout hits your big toe first not wieners
When I was a kid in Panama City, FL the lunch room served hot dogs maybe once a month. I was in the first grade and they had a sauce you could put on your hot dog.
It was the only thing they had to add and it was pretty good. I actually thought it was a special sauce they made until one of the other kids told me they just mixed the mayonnaise, mustard and Ketchup together to make the line move faster.
whatever else that might be it ain’t no hot dog....mustard pickle relish ,and diced onions that’s it nothing else....Those are sausages on buns with fixings but they ain’t hot dogs
NOOOOOOOO I like loose meat but now I may never be able to order it again
