World's Best Hot Dog

[BailJumper]

I stepped into that hole-in-the wall coney place that was short lived in the former alley next to the BT parking garage... They were open as some pub. On a Friday night there only two people in the place and the hotdog look pathetic. I passed.

You can also get Boars Head meats at Falcone's. You used to could get it at Gaetano's too but unfortunately they are no longer in business. I've seen Boars Head meats elsewhere but I can't remember where.

You can also buy them at the Gourmet Deli on Western.

On one trip some years back to NYC, I remember eating at some fine restaurants. But my favorite meal of all was a dog from a street vendor on a crisp cold December day. I do wish we had them available here like that. I've been looking for some years. Tuck yours sounds pretty good, what restaurant do you mean when you say Pops?

My homemade is pretty good: Hebrew National weiners baked in the oven, then split and a strip of cheddar inserted and put back in to melt. Hot Hormel chili, Sara Lee bun opened and a line of mustard, chow chow and fresh crisp sweet onions. The grill is better but the oven is my version of fast food.

I've taken a new pleasure in the lower end of the price scale of late.

The Sonic footlong chilicheesedawgs are more than passable, no pun intended.

Ditto the 99 cent two pack Big Bites, two 6 inch smoked sausages in dawg buns, located in 7-11 coolers. (Yeah, I know. sounds odd. I first bought a twin pack on a dare, expecting to be very unimpressed. But add some sauce to them and, even nuked, they beat out most of the 99 cent and up fresh hot food value menus in town, in volume and in taste.)

Kevin, I think you are at the wrong end of the spectrum . . . 7-11 . . . cooler . . . ?

Has anyone tried that hot dog place over on Western? I think it's called, "Gourmet Hot Dogs." If they are any good, it might be worth the trip over there.

TODG, I did note I was commenting on the lower end of the price spectrum.


But I'll likely snarf up the Big Bites twin packs from the reach in coolers at 7-11 for a while yet to come.

I truly figured the first time would be the only time. I did not really expect much from a 99 cent convenience store anything, in particular something that involved 40 seconds via a nuke machine. So yeah, I was surprised to find the smoked sausages were actually tasty and did not need massive amounts of addons to make them edible.

There are many things in that same reach in cooler I wouldn't try even if they were 10 for a dollar, but the twin pack smoked sausages ain't bad, ain't bad at all.

It isn't in OKC but in Tulsa I always eat at the Coney I-lander..great little dogs.

This is a little out of the way - a few miles east of OKC - but there's a place called "Rutt's Hut" in Clinton, NJ (on the way to Atlantic City) where they deep fry their dogs. Nothing earth-shattering about the joint or the method, but really not a bad dog.

As my brother-in-law said: "Oh great. A new way to clog up your arteries!"
