Essem's are number 1, Jordan's are very close and since neither are available any longer in the south now we can only get Kayem as a frankfurter.
not smoked and with a natural casing. and for those that only eat disgusting skinless hot dogs true franks have natural casing and so they do "pop" when done

I don't know if Tobin's First Prize hot dogs are still made. When I was a boy in Massachusetts, those were what we had in our home.

6-30-2008 @9:01PM tuttifrutti said... You people have absolutely no idea what a hot dog is!! Muckes with skin and Grote & Weigle with skin are real hot dogs. All those Oscar Meyer and Ball Park hot dogs are not real hot dogs, they are generic cheap versions.

6-30-2008 @9:19PM Jimmy said... No VIENNA BEEF!?!?...No BOARS HEAD All BEEF!?!?...Both should have made the list before any of those wretched Oscar Myer dogs....BLEAGH!!!..THEY'RE HORRID!!!...What were ya thinkin'?

slimmy and tasteless.

6-30-2008 @10:00PM Jim said... Zweigles is THE BEST, BAR NONE. Either Red or White,
Pop-Open type hots. But to truly enjoy this, you
should add a great hot sauce.(Not a barbecue type
like in and around Buffalo, but a ground up meat type
found around the Rochester, N.Y. area, particularly
found in many of the Greek restaurants).

6-30-2008 @10:23PM Paul said... If Koegels of Michigan isn't in the top 5 on the list, it's a worthless list. Completely invalidates it!!!!!!!
Ball Park has 5 or so on the list! DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't eat Ball Park hot dogs. They make me sick. Literally. They make me blow chunks.

6-30-2008 @10:27PM Tammy McKenna said... You didn't include any from New England. Schonlands Hot Dogs are the best[recently bought out by kayems in brown box not blue]. The natural casing ones give you that snap. You also didn't mention the Jordan's Red Hot Dog. I like Boar's head too.

6-30-2008 @10:40PM Frank said... Sabrett's is the best tasting, fits right on the bun & an be complimented by all combinations of ingredients. Best of Sabretts is the Natural Casing
variety. It has a definite "snap" when you bite into it. They have been used by street vendors in New York & New Jersey for years. And they are great in Italian style hot dog sandwiches; invented in NJ by
Jimmy 'Buff" Raccioppi in the 1930's Ask anyone in Newark/Jersey City/ NYC and they will tel you the same thing
