Dear Pit
At our neighborhood gathering on July 4th my wife and i are doing a hot dog selection for our contribution. I will be making scratch dogs and sausage at home. My issue is that there are so many regional specialties I am not sure which ones to make. I was thinking of making 4 different types and the appropriate fixings. I am thinking variety but am not sure. my thoughts were:
1. Chicago dog (yes with steamed bun, bright green relish and smoked beef link)
2. Polish boy
3. Cincinnati chili dog
4. Sonora dog
its variety but all about the mid west and we are in SoCal. Honestly i am at a loss, do i make more? More sausage? buy the dogs and just make fat sausages. i think we are expecting about 30 adults and a couple wagon loads of kids.
i dont know anymore. What are your thoughts? one neighbor is doing something Italian, another is doing a nachos/taco bar and another is doing Vietnamese. (Yum!) plus other neighbors. i was thinking that not everyone gets one (each) type given all the food. i was considering a vegan dog too, but then....... no.
I will leave you with my perplexed and confused thinking face.
I thought this was a good idea for hot dogs but I am almost over it.
Sincerely,
