Hot Diggity Dog!

Looking at all the hot dog recipes here is making my mouth water.

Here's a new gizmo. What will they think of next?!?

Haha!!

That would be nice to own, and I've seen them before, but I have to eat my hot dogs boiled to get rid of most of the salt.

Cooking hot dogs and toasting the buns is what toaster ovens are for. Why add another gadget to a counter top that gets more crowded every day?

Wouldnt the buns get too toasty or the hot dogs not cooked enough?

If you have to spread eagle the buns, doesn't that make for them coming apart?

Microwave cooks the weiners ... oven broiler toasts the buns ... saves counter space/cabinate storage space and $50!

Yes - it might take me 2-minutes longer the "old" way - but it saves me 2-3 minutes trying to dig the gizmo out of the cabinet every time I want a hotdog!

Not for me as I like my hot dog buns soft (make my own), not toasted. Besides, why would the seller only have one unit in his warehouse? Does her really mean one model, or has he not sold the first one he bought? Hmmmmmm... Since Ron Popiel (sp?) is not selling it, I probably would not buy it.

Also, the best hot dog buns are steamed, not toasted.

Not if you're any good at making hot dogs, no. You put the hot dogs on the tray in the toaster oven, turn the knob to BROIL, then nuke the buns in the microwave for about 20 seconds so you can "spread eagle" them without breaking them. When one side of the hot dog is done, you pull out the tray, turn the hot dogs over, put the buns under the broiler, and continue to cook until the buns are toasted and the hot dogs are broiled.

BTW, if I WAS to buy a special machine to cook hot dogs and buns, I would prefer THIS one that I saw in the Fingerhut catalog.


BTW, if you look in Buy Together at the bottom of the catalog page, you will also see the T-FAL one egg frying pan, which is very popular in France because, in French, one egg is an oeuf.
