Where I'm from in South Coast Ma., there are hot dog stands everywhere. Our's are steamed hot dogs and buns (usually Maple Leaf or Kayem), coney sauce made from finely ground beef and spices, mustard and onions. For Rhode Islanders, they will remember NY System coney dogs, with the hot dog being grilled and the same condiments. In both cases, you can find either one in both areas. Another variation is the works with mustard, onions, relish, and celery salt. I always pickup packets of coney sauce mix where you just add water and hamburg from Nick's Coney Island in Fall River. They actually call it dirty Nick's because he would line the dogs up to his elbow and add to them.

Equally good are the authentic Italian beef sandwiches, also “imported”. He even has home made Italian gardinierre shipped in for enjoyment with the beef sandwiches.
Thanks for this!

Back in the late 60's I had a hot dog at Nathan's on Coney Island. It was nothing special. I didn't get all the fuss.

I never liked Nathan's, but I grew up with Hummels, which are made in Connecticut, and so far I haven't seen anything close to them. If I ever drive back up north, I'm going to buy a case of them and bring them back on ice. Delivery cost to Florida on these puppies is over $100 for 24 dogs, heh. I might pick up some Perri Sausage too. They're out of New Haven/East Haven (an area called the Annex). I worked there as a temp for a few months in the payroll department. The office had a window that looked out onto the factory floor and we could watch them make the sausages. Very cool.
also Grote & Weigel. i miss Doogies so much

They did sell them back them by the millions. Or at least hundred of thousands.

With mustard and sauerkraut they were awesome

We bought some feltmans and some Hoffman dogs. Tried the both yesterday. Hoffman dog were far superior. Feltmans wear just a notch above Oscar Meyer.

Out of curiosity I looked for Hoffman’s Snap Dogs today at Publix. They may be a favorite for some but they looked like an anemic white Vienna dog that couldn’t possibly compare to a traditional NY hot dog. Thx I’ll pass on that suggestion.

My wife also commented that she thought Feltman’s was only just as good as Boars Head. So I’ve accepted that hot dogs, like pizza are a highly individualized taste.

I tried to get Feldman's hot dogs at Publix in Grand Traverse Plaza today. They did not have them and the person there said they were not at any Publix.

Anyone know where to get them now?

I’ve seen Feltman’s Coney Island Hot Dogs at both Deaton and Colony Publix. Grand Traverse is a smaller Publix. Fresh Market also had them for $9.99 a pk, which I thought was high.

I bought them about a week ago at Publix in Trailwinds Village. They were $6.?? for a 12.8 ounce package of 8 (1.6 ounces each). Tasty, but they don't fill a bun.

The fuss is all kosher beef, no "parts", versus mystery meat.

Picked up the Feltman's yesterday at Trailways Publix. Really liked them.
