Hot dogs, Armour hot dogs!
OK, well maybe not Armour hot dogs. I do love hot dogs. I prefer Hebrew National or Caspers given the choice. Ever since I was a child hot dogs have been one of my favorite foods from the grill. I also enjoy them when out and about and my favorite place in the WORLD to get a dog is at Pink’s Hot Dogs in N. Hollywood, CA on the corner of Sunset and La Brea. These guys are world famous for their dogs, all the celebs go to them and anything you could possibly want on your dog, can be found at Pink’s. My favorite you ask? The Mulholland Drive dog, it features grilled onion, grilled mushrooms, bacon, and NACHO cheese. Man, I just had some leftover hot dogs from last night, but just typing about Pink’s makes me want to NOM NOM NOM the Mulholland Drive dog.
If I am at home making dogs on the grill, I’m usually doing it with a cold beer and I’m cooking them until the skin is black. Not dry and black, just black and when you bite into them you don’t taste burnt dog, you taste nice juicy dog with that “pop” as your teeth break the skin. I’m usually cooking a pot of beans next to them, I often buy Busch’s grilling beans and add brown sugar and BBQ sauce to it, if I have bacon already made and leftover, I’ll put bacon in them. I’ll admit, their is not usually leftover bacon in my house. My preference for buns usually consists of steamed buns or buns placed on the grill to get them a crust around the inside.
How do I take my dogs at home? I take them with ketchup only and a few dill pickles on the side. 2 dogs with a few pickles and some beans and I feel like I’ve eaten a cow. I’m stuffed to the gills, but glad to enjoy them. I always laugh at the MANY people who refuse to eat hot dogs because they don’t know what is in them, I know what’s in them — LIPS AND ASSHOLES, just like my Mom told me and they taste just fine to me.
If you are a hater of the tasty dog, then pass the LIPS AND ASSHOLES — that means more for me!
LOL you dork. I love you
