They served it under the name, "Winky Dinks". Yeezus!

However, somebody at Pillsbury must have suffered through something similar and came up with a recipe where you wrap one or two of those triangular-shaped "Crescent" bits of dough around a hot dog (preferrably a Koegel's, of course!) and bake that. That is surprisingly not bad.

At least nobody is claiming that the quarter-pound alleged hot dog they serve at Costco's along with a big old soda for a buck-fifty is anything remotely close to good. That thing is a tube of gas, just waiting to hit your gut before the gas is released. Nasty!

I make that very claim. Could live on em. As to those cheese-like slices, can't count the number of weenies straight from the fridge with that very yellow slice as the "bun" that I've conveniently consumed! Heck, that stuff has *already* been cooked! Why would one require *further* cookage??

Now, I *do* have to admit to sometimes varying the shaping of said wrap. Oh, and a frozen hot dog straight from the freezer goes down little differently from a frozen Snickers bar. That cooking stuff is a *lot* of unnecessary work, seems to *me* - not to *mention* zero cleanup. Now I'm gonna have to ponder that "not to mention" cliche and how that never seems to prevent said "mention".

Honestly, the original Pepe's in New Haven is the one that got it started for me. However, Pepe's and Sally's Apizza have now gone national. I get it but the original locations have the original ovens and the ambiance. That said, Modern Apizza is my new favorite New Haven haunt.

They even boil the disgusting things, for heaven’s sake
The ingredients seen to be a paste of unidentifiable source, much of which I am sure is waste from food bins, and veterinary surgeries.
There is only one item of culinary perfection that is worth eating, in a bread roll, and that is the Great British Banger.
Perfection in a roll or on a plate!

Y'all boil everything!

No self respecting hot dog connoisseur eats boiled hot dog (except for the "dirty water dogs form the carts in NYC and Philly...). They must be grilled, so you get that crunch!

Now go sit in a corner and think about what you did...

Nathan's hot dogs are "Kosher Style", meaning they are all beef. So no, they don't qualify as Halal, either...

Back in college , I worked in a Kosher Deli in DC. We had many Muslim customers shopping there, as their dietary laws are very similar to Kosher.

Hey, you could have chosen a veggie dog as your favorite hot dog. Yum! With guacamole and American cheese. 🤮🤢😵*💫

Never said they were. I was simply clarifying the poster raving about Nathan's and "must be Halal". He was wrong...

Also, what is it the with the Coneys here (i.e. Coneys at 301 & 466a) Being from Tulsa and Houston, you STEAM the buns, and put the (tiny unknown source) hotdogs on there with mustard (on the bottom) , chili with GRATED onions (not chopped) and lots of cheese.

Growing up (Kansas) it was those awful Oscar Meyer wieners, with mustard and Pickle relish (or BOILED with Miracle Whip on White Bread - not a bun). I'm sure that with get someone riled up!

Now my dad (German descent) would always try to get us to put sauerkraut on them, but seemed he only wanted to put them on Brats.

What can I say?
Can I be redeemed????
LOL

Sorry you seem to be a lost cause.

Hot dogs must have mustard and sauerkraut but will allow any kind of bread to hold it.

However anyone who puts pickle relish and miracle whip, with raw onion and cheese on a hot dog would never come to one of our bbq's.

Get the white clam at The Modern. Their bacon apizza will rock your world. If you're feeling naughty, go for the white clam casino, which combines the two for extra goodness.

It’s cute that you think a tube steak is a hotdog.
