What’s Your #1 Topping and Cooking Method for a Hot Dog?

This weekend is the unofficial start to summer, which means it’s officially hot dog season again.

 

 

A new survey by the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council . . . the NHDSC, if you’re hip . . . asked people how to make the best dog.

 

 

Not surprisingly, the vast majority of people prefer their hotdogs GRILLED.  75% say they like them grilled, compared to 9% who like them best over a campfire . . . 6% prefer ’em boiled . . . 3% like them to be steamed . . . and 2% are cool with the microwave.

 

 

The #1 topping was MUSTARD.  That’s interesting, because people were NOT as excited about having mustard on their burgers in another recent poll.

 

 

Ketchup was the second most-essential topping, followed by onions, relish, chili, cheese, sauerkraut, mayo, bacon, jalapenos, and coleslaw.

 

Here is some food for thought….See what I did there 🙂
