Hot Dogs | Pad Patter 7.25

I don't have a grill and have no plans to get one. Doesn't make sense for just me so I have always fixed my hot dogs by boiling them. No more. Air fryer for the win! Heck, I've only used the oven once since I've been able to eat anything and that was the 2nd night. I've fixed scrambled eggs on the stove maybe 2 times. Every other meal that needs cooking (been eating a lot of ham salad and potato salad from the grocery deli though) has been done in the air fryer. I'm sure I'll use the oven next winter but for now, I'm in love with the air fryer since it is so easy to do single servings.

 

I got the air fryer awhile ago but really couldn't eat anything so never used it. But now... I'm hooked. The crock pot is in the cupboard (I used it all the time when I was limited on what I could eat) and the air fryer sits in its place. Now the instapot... it is being donated. Never got the hang of it and there is so much that can be fixed in the air fryer that I never even dreamed of! Doesn't hurt that there is no messy grease to deal with either.

 

I used to eat them all the time, then I quit for diet reasons. Now they taste yucky to me. I can eat an all-beef one if it has been blackened on the grill. I prefer it with chili, onions, and mustard. Slaw if it is the version I like.

Now bratwurst on the other hand --- all day long... love them grilled with peppers and onions.

And sandwich? If it sits on bread of any type, it is!

 

Love bratwurst too. I like mine with sauerkraut and mustard, onions and peppers sound good too. I think I need to fire up my grill and grill me up some brats.

 

I eat Koegel's hotdogs. They are made locally, and like many others who live nearby, I'm picky about hotdogs and won't eat them if I don't know what the brand is. We get the regular Frankfurters.

I like to put on ketchup, mustard, pickle relish and onions on my hot dogs, although I sometimes leave off the ketchup. I also like "Flint style" coney dogs, which are Koegel's Viennas with a dry chili meat sauce, mustard and onions. ("Detroit style" is more soupy, although I'm sure people that prefer that style describe it more flatteringly.)

I googled "define sandwich" and one of the People also ask questions was "Is a hotdog a sandwich or a taco?" LOL

 

Love hotdogs. Depending on where I am I like the sausages both boiled or grilled. In Denmark at a proper Hot dog stand boiled, anywhere else grilled.
Filling traditional : remoulade (a sauce condiment made with mayo,chopped pickles,and a bit of mustard.)
Perfect Hotdog= good quality sausage , ketchup,followed by a small amount of mustard,with remoulade on top of that, followed by either chopped raw onions,or dry roasted onions, topped with a line of thinly sliced gerkins..
Ahhh, I so want to go to Denmark and have one... Maltese are rubbish at making hotdogs, they think baked beans is a hot dog filling !
No it is not a sandwich

 

You don't have to thaw to use the air fryer either

 

I don't eat meat anymore but when I did, hotdogs/smokies/sausages were at the top of my list. I would eat them in a bun or without, would pile on the cheese, chili, diced onion, coleslaw, sauerkraut (not all at the same time of course). Hotdogs and beans was a camping fave for years and the kids loved it too.

 

Yes, I do. But only certain kinds- never at Sonic. They have made me sick the 3 times I tried them there. Full beef hot dog only for me. At fairs/festivals, I have to see them first to decide if they pass for me, LOL. (Hey, nothing is worth a very upset stomach, right?!!)
And if so, what goes on a hot dog?
Hubs and I had favorite treat dating and then early years of marriage that we've kept up with; chili dogs. sauce, onions, cheese. Only occasionally (4-5 x year) now though. We are watching more closely what we consume. Plain roasted Hot Dog needs ketchup. NEVER mustard for me, mustard makes me cough! Must be an allergy. A dog that is thick and quality content can handle sauerkraut. But normally that goes on Brats for us.
Is is a sandwich??? CHECK THIS OUT

 

HA! Idk!
