The Great Hot Dog Cookoff 2011

Filed under it's fun to be fat, living in new york is neat

The best thing about summer, of course, is hot dogs. And the best thing you can do with hot dogs, of course, is eat 13 of them.

    Pretty sure I threw up a little in my mouth.

    And not because of the porta potties. What’s wrong with me?

    Thank you so much for the lovely things you said on my blog! You made my day!

    I’m so glad you found me, because I just spent about 40 minutes going through your blog. LOVE it, it absolutely makes me smile! Your sense of humor is amazing. I’ll be following you now!

    • YES! I like you AND you like me?! Meant to be. I’ve been secretly working on redesigning a bit of my blog lately and was sooooo inspired by your header with the Kens and the simple-but-so-effectual black lines. Maybe you shouldn’t follow me so you don’t see me stealing all of your ideas.

    Mmmmm hot dogs…

    I’m sure I’ll be making acquaintance with several of those soon… I’m about to take off for NW Ohio, home of the never-empty grill. Whoo Hoo!

    • Yeah, fish some lobster out of the Lake and make your own Great-Hot-Dog-Cookoff-winner! Yeah, that’s right. I said lobster. In Lake Erie.

    So here in Arizona, we have these things called Mexican hot dogs. They’re wrapped in bacon, smothered in mayo, mustard, cheese, onion, tomato, some sort of hot sauce, and pinto beans.

    So freaking delicious. You buy them from little traveling hot dog stands.

    Also, I feel like putting lobster on top of a hot dog for a contest is sort of cheating. Of *course* the lobster one is going to win . . . it’s fucking lobster.

    • MAN. All of the hot dog carts here are ketchup, brown mustard, and cooked onions. Not even yellow mustard and not even raw onions, which I like better in both cases. I WANT THAT MEXICAN DOG. (Mayo!)

      I totally agree with you on the cheating aspect. But I still want it! Next year, I’m making one with truffles and caviar.

  5. SO. FREAKING. JEALOUS.

    You know how I feel about wienies.

  6. Abso-friggin-lutely!
    The only thing better than 13 hotdogs is 14 hotdogs!
