   What's your favorite way to have a hot dog and what do the kids like?
   
   Are you a ketchup and relish fan, rap them up in bacon and biscuits, Chicago dogs, or do you have your own special way?  Is there a certain brand you always eat (Hebrew for me if I do eat them)? What about on the grill?

   When the cook asks me what do you like me to put inside, my answer is always "EVERYTHING", so my favorite is to contain everything available

   In downtown Dallas there is this guy who runs a hot dog cart.  He is usually at the Rosa Park Memorial.  I go over and order a bratwurst on a bun with mustard.  I don't like a lot of condiments on brats.  I really am not a big fan of hot dogs.
   
   If I get an actual hot dog, I want it smothered in onions and chili; and, I am usually at a Texas Rangers baseball game.when I do that.

   I like onions and ketchup.  My kids like them with nothing on.  A chili dog once in a while is good, but only if I can eat it in privacy.  Nothing worse than wathcing me dribble chli down my chin

   I am a fan of natural casing dogs from the deli counter which I get very rarely, typically I go with all-beef dogs or with turkey dogs - there's so much yucky stuff in hotdogs, if I stick w/ one type of meat I feel a little safer.
   
   I like mine grilled til brown, almost burnt.  With dijon mustard. Yum Yum!

   All-beef angus hot dogs with mustard & sweet relish; doesn't matter how ya cook 'em (microwave, boiled, fried or grilled), for me.  If it is a cheap 'dog (hopefully it's not processed roadkill), then chili & cheese sounds good.  When I was kid, I just liked ketchup on it, for some reason...

   I actually like tofu hot dogs, cooked until they are very well done, and then I enjoy smothering them with lots of mustard and onions!  I am not a fan of ketchup!

   I like it with ketchup OR cheese, not both.  My kids like it with ketchup AND cheese, and my youngest puts onions on hers.

   The dogs in the pic sure look good, but I usually like quality hot dogs from the local market, grilled very well, hopefully not black, but a tad of black is ok. I add a thin layer of ketchup and dijon mustard. Oh, I like my bun toasted, too.

    Oscar Meyer hot dogs, boiled with mustard only (and not always including a bun) Have tried them "smothered" with various things and never really liked them that way! No kids . . . .

    I prefer chili and cheese on my dogs, with dill pickles on the side.  My kids like them when I cut each dog in half, and roll each half in ready to bake croissant rolls, and bake them.  They dip them in their favorite condiments.  In my opinion, the best hot dog is Sahlen's.  They are sold in upstate New York. The best!

    My daughter likes them grilled but plain-with no condiments. I on the other hand, load it up! I especially like Chicago style, or like my hometown Hot Dog Shoppe used to make with homemade chili, onion, and pickle!

    LA street dogs... grill the bun, grill a bacon wrapped chicken or beef frank, grill a chopped up onion and a whole jalapeno, put on one line of mustard, mayo and ketchup right next to each other the length of the dog
