    We had a "Gourmet Hot Dog" dinner the other night. Steamed, boiled, cooked some on my "novelty hot dog rotisserie". Had chopped onions, Jalapenos, Bacon, Cheese Sauce...and then I sauteed the onions. In Pepsi, with a little salt, touch of brown sugar. Then I broke out the Cream Cheese. My wife, daughter, son-in-law, said those sauteed onions were DELICIOUS, and when combined with the Cream Cheese, was the best hot dog they had ever eaten. My wife said "Your Signature Dog is right here." ( =

    @Hot Dog Car Store If you want to try a really good dog. Melt some butter (you can add any spice to it). Slather the inside of the bun with it and let that butter soak in. Then add your dog to it. You haven't tasted heaven till you have tried it this way. I have added Garlic, Chili Powder, of Cayenne Pepper to the butter for a kick.

    Sounds great, the sweet Coke would go well with the onions. Instead of slicing them you should Juliane them and cut across the fibers. This makes the sautéed onion a little more tender. Cut the onion in half then cut across those little lines going through the onion. Great idea though.

    I would use a bigger skillet. We do hot dogs with sauerkraut and mustard. That is the standard hot dog in Europe. And mostly we do blood sausage and bread sausage baked on a plate together with the onion and then served with Heinze ketchup or mustard. . Our buns are different too, Here we use french pistolet dough buns whereas americans use a kind of milk bread that we call sandwiches. Anyways...

    Is it me or are all these hotdog vendors making it seem so overly complicated with the toppings?

    People actually buy your aluminum foil for $20+ when they could just go to the store and get about 3-4 rolls for the same price?? Dang, that's me selling paper out of my $5 sketch pad for $10 a sheet. No offense, but that's the most bizarre pitch I've ever heard!

      Hot Dog Cart Store An "aluminium foil pan"; where you crinkle the edges of aluminum foil and sell 2 crinkled sheets for $20? I'm trying to understand what you're actually bringing to the table here sir.

      Have you taken your meds today? We don't sell aluminum foil. It's ok though, just call your Dr.

      I said I didn't mean to offend. I was curious as to what you are actually selling.
