Locally we get Bobak's, for the stores we usually get Hebrew National or Ball Park 100% beef. We usually do stick to all pork or all beef dogs unless we are having to feed a lot of people and grilling, then we got with whatever is on sale ;)

All this talk of hot dogs..... sheesh. I had to break down yesterday and buy a large package of Smith's dogs. I might have to try making one of Jeek's potato dogs, but I like 'em "neat".
My toughest decision is what to squeeze on them, as you can tell

My all-time favorite is Sahlen's, which aren't available in California except my mail order. I normally buy either Nathan's Famous or Hebrew National when I grocery shop, but I love the hot dogs that Omaha Steaks sells, and when I place an order with them, I will order extras when they're on sale.

We can sometimes get Sahlen's deli ham. It's a favorite of ours. I haven't seen their hot dogs.

I picked up some Boars Head hot dogs last week. I must say, they are like night and day compared to other brands. Cost slightly more, but well worth it. Definately my new favorite brand.

I had a Nathan's hot dog at Sam's snack bar today. My very first one and I thought it was very good. I do prefer the beef.

I tried the famous "Chicago Hot Dog" made by Vienna Hot Dog, while I was in Ohare international airport. I don't think it was a good example of this dog, which has been featured on F.N. I found the dog overcooked to the point of being flavorless. It had obviously been in hot water way too long. And if this isn't hte case, and the hot dog is the way I had it straight from the package, then it's one of the worst hot dogs I ever had. The toppings were Ok, but nothing special. I really don't know what the big deal is with them. I was dissapointed.

I'll stick with Cher-Made, or Koegle's, or Vollwurths. And I like Hebrew National, and our local restaurant supply store brand "Best". They all taste very good, if a bit different. I still want to lean to make my own, from scratch.
