all american dinner

Last night I was in the mood for summer bbq food, but was too lazy to fire up the grill. We stayed in and broiled up some franks for hot dogs and had corn on the cob with salad. I was lusting after the Hidden Valley Ranch dressing (my favorite) earlier that afternoon at Safeway.

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. That is a huge weener! It's Hebrew National, a favorite of Mr. S, and in my opinion, is pretty tastey. For toppings, I prefer the trinity: ketchup, yellow mustard and sweet pickle relish. I know that a lot of Baltimoreans like their franks wrapped in bologna. I've also seen some strange toppings, including pork and beans. What do you like on your hot dogs? I'd love to hear your comments!
