LA street hot dogs have a special place in my heart, every single concert or event I've been to in LA, you bet a street vendor will be waiting outside grilling some tasty dogs, the caramelized onions are the best part!

[@Park_Place]

There are two rules of thumb when it comes to street dogs: 1. The less official the stand is, the better the food is. If that sweet old Mexican lady is cooking out of a laundry cart and keeps her ketchup and mustard in rinsed-out Suavitel containers, the dogs are gonna be fire. They'll also be super generous with the portions and give you a sausage wrapped in 4 bacon strips topped with a pound of onion for like $6. 2. The more indistuingishable each ingredient is, the tastier the hot dog will be. You don't want your street dog to look like the photo at Costco food courts. All the ingredients need to mix and make the dog look like garbage in order to maximize the flavor per bite.

As a North Carolinian, our dogs are staples here. But nothing can compete to a coney, (or the skyline dog, but I’ve always still heard them referred to as coneys by my mom who was raised there) all the way with Skyline Chili and Tabasco on top during a cold day. I was 8 when I had my first ever coney in Cincinnati. It was cold as hell outside, and I put Tabasco on top of those chili cheese and onions (I hated onions as a kid but this converted me) and I took a bite of my first ever real deal dog and fell in love. I’m 32 now and have chased that taste ever since. Coneys will always have a place in my heart.

This is a great story. We ran a Top Dog cart in DFW for years and brought in different hot dogs and buns from around the country. By far, the Chicago style was the most popular followed by a Texas chili dog. We only did catering jobs and were booked solid from Memorial Day through football season. We traveled to many different spots and a few of our favorites were the Skyline, Maxwell Polish, the Sonoran and the Detroit Coney. If you’re ever in Denver, a trip to Biker Jim’s is a treat as is Pink’s in LA. The ripper in NJ is also a great dog but the Italian served at Jimmy Buff’s was too much for us.

I grew up in South Carolina, and as far back as I can remember my parents would make Carolina Dogs. So these are a must for a real Carolina dog, but I will say that the pink wiener is totally optional. It must have a nice chili with no beans, a coleslaw that can be creamy, but must have some vinegar in it, a nice yellow mustard and some chopped sweet Vidalia onions. I love almost all hotdogs, but the Carolina Dog in my opinion, when made right, is absolutely the best. There is also a Carolina burger that I grew up on as well that has the exact same ingredients, but obviously with a Cheeseburger or regular burger and instead of a hotdog. Wendy's actually sold a Carolina Burger for a limited time, and was pretty good, but the coleslaw needed more vinegar.

[@EphemeralTao]

As a Seattle native, I love that they actually mentioned the Seattle dog, but sad that they only included the original instead of the most popular version of it. The best modern Seattle dog is a split-grilled sausage (what kind doesn't matter, I prefer Polish, but a kosher dog, brat, even red-hot works just fine), a hoagie roll toasted on the grill (a bagel bun is classic, unfortunately almost no one offers those anymore), caramelized onions, cream cheese, and sriracha sauce. The tangy spicy garlic-y sriracha sauce is the real key to pulling it all together, giving the Seattle dog a distinctive kick you don't find in any other tubemeat variation.

This is false. Chocolate has never been used in Skyline chili. I'm allergic to it and enjoy eating there. That myth came about when someone posted a copycat recipe in the Cincinnati Enquirer in the 70s-80s claiming to have cracked the code. They thought they discovered chocolate was giving it it's color, but were mistaken. That didn't stop every mother and grandmother from copying it down and putting it in their recipe box. So, now if you eat homemade Cincinnati chili from grandma's "secret recipe" you're really eating a failed copycat recipe from 40-50 years ago. It's why homemade tastes nothing like Skyline.

There is nothing quite as tasty as a steamed hot dog covered in beanless chilli, sprinkled with diced onions and drizzled with, mustard (even though I prefer to NOT have mustard on my hot dogs). Try explaining all of this to an outsider who is visiting Michigan and have them try it., they have not lived until they have tried a coney dog. I would know, I tried that with my old girlfriend and her family who moved to Michigan from Japan, and they loved it. She now lives in Illinois, but we still stay in touch every so often.

As a person who has lived in Seattle my whole life. The Seattle Dog was new to me about 20 years ago, in the early 2000’s. Ate one on our way into a Mariner’s game. But have since seen them as a staple after a night out in downtown Seattle!! The true form is in a bagel style bread with cream cheese. But a Kaiser roll is also except-able

[@Sniperboy5551]

Acceptable, but that sounds good

[@alejandroramirez4470]

i'd give it a try with flavored cream cheese

[@niles8102]

Westlake Park has a stand called "Dog in the Park" where my co-workers and I go for lunch once in a while :)

[@EphemeralTao]

Also a Seattle native, and IMO a proper Seattle dog also needs grilled onions and sriracha sauce.

During the Great Depression, Chicago style dogs where the only way many people could get their vegetables. The Red Snapper is called Saveloy in England.

My all-time favorite is the Maine red hot dog on a (pan fried) flat sided bun with some homemade Zucchini relish (a Maine recipe). Every time I go to Maine, I eat lots of Red hot dogs and usually bring a package of red-hot dogs back home in Las Vegas.

[@Neoboo297]

The crazy thing about this list is, there are still even more regional hot dog styles that aren't on it. I grew up in Plattsburgh, NY, and locally we had Michigans, a type of chili dog that could be found in multiple local hot dog restaurants, even being the name sake of one such place. Funny how so many places across America have their own idea of what the best way to serve a Hot Dog is.

[@StephenViola-ib8dq]

Michigans are delicious!! I just commented that they left them out!!! BAD BAD BAD!!!!!!

BRO EVERY UNIQUE HOT DOG IS A CHILI DOG how it it different

[@midoc34]

@@tobiashaswell9846 The meat sauce on a Michigan isn't really "chili". It looks like chili but it tastes very different. It's made with Molasses, vinegar, tomato paste, and various spices. It tastes more like BBQ than chili.

@15:41 Hot Dog Charlies was a staple when I was growing up in the late 60's/early 70's. I was wondering if you would mention it. My mom and I still visit the last tiny location left in Troy, NY on the Hudson River when we go back to where she grew up. They were always so good, and you could eat a half dozen in a sitting easily because they're so small. Thanks for the mention!

The Seattle cream cheese and grilled onions sounds strange, but from a native, trust me it's super good and you should give it a try -- especially after a few drinks!

They're worth it. The recipe is just different. Youll probably like them better then corn dogs. I personally do. Theyre a tourist staple in Springfield. You guys got that wrong. Its Springfield Illinois.....I live in Illinois and go there all of the time and they tell the history. I know the history well because I'm a nerd with this lol.

Love our carolina dogs, in SC we don’t normally have the signature red dogs but they’re still delicious. When ordering we typically state we’d like a dog all the way with slaw, all the way meaning, chili, mustard and diced white onion. The key is the slaw and chili, everyone around where I live has slight variations on both but they’re all quite delicious.

[@DudeCalledJack]

I'm from NC and the Bright Leafs are ok...nothing too special. BUT you're correct about the chili and slaw! You could get a hotdog from 5 different places and all 5 would taste different! And probably all awesome haha.

[@KattMurr]

My first job when I was 16 was at Hot Dog Charlie's at a local mall. We served only hot dogs (small, regular and "big Charlie's", which were foot long) and soda. Also rice pudding for dessert. Nothing else. At the time (1989) that location had the highest sales than any other location. There were half a dozen open at that time. Christmas is when the most $ was brought in because the mall, Crossgates was the most popular in the area....😁

great video as always; if you are creating a list of ideas for future videos; what is the origins of the flavor "blue raspberry"??? raspberries are not blue; so how did that end up being a flavor?

[@namebrandmason]

It's just raspberry flavor. Vendors make it blue because the more common strawberry and cherry flavors are both red.

[@hipp_katt]

I'm currently drinking blue raspberry juice😅

[@klayman2]

it's derived from blackcap raspberry, a wild raspberry most never eat, similar to why grape soda/candy doesn't taste like the grapes you'd normally eat, it's derived from the type that are used for fermenting.

[@riograul2043]

You should make a video about the weird cult-like following for White Castle, there's nothing that affects me the way those little steamed burgers with delicious patties, pickle, and onion juice drippings do. I'll never forget the first time I ever ate it I was 16 years old, and I ate a whole 10 sack of original sliders. I didn't even know that I liked onions until that day, it was in a parking lot in northeastern Ohio with my father. I've driven over 75 miles sometimes just to visit one of these restaurants, from Phoenix Arizona all the way to New York City I've had White Castle sliders. For a 100-year-old Burger place, they're really effective at marketing and they introduced the world to the greatest Trifecta of burger flavors which is onion, pickle, cheese. A lot of higher-end smashburgers and burgers of that nature only use onion pickle and cheese, so it's weird that they introduced that holy Trinity but with their own twist on it: the burgers are steamed in the onions, the onions are scooped off of the grill after caramelizing, and haphazardly tossed onto the burger, and the buns are stacked heel to top in order to absorb moisture and soften. The pickles are unceremoniously tucked in between the burger halves as it's assembled. It is the greatest of all American cheeseburgers.

[@wildkeith]

I worked at White Castle as a teen. The reason some people get stomach distress is the dehydrated onions are hard to digest.

Back in the day, there were so many places here in NJ that served "Texas Weiners". Most all of them were owned and operated by Greek immigrants. The thing that made them special was the sauce put on the hot dog and you could even get chili burgers and chili fries as well. The sauce was made up mostly of spices from the Mediterranean region. I have made it at home many times....it is Cincinnati chili made with simmering ground beef with many spices and yes, unsweetened cocoa powder, cinnamon and all spice are indeed in there. So even though you were in NJ eating a Texas weiner, you were eating Cincinnati chili . Incidentally in Cincinnati, they serve it over spaghetti but you can have it all the way with shredded cheddar, sliced onions and all.

[@pitsa9838]

In chicago they have a place called dog haus and they use Hawaiian rolls instead of regular buns. The slight sweeetness in the bun with saltiness is insane. I tried making em at home they’re hard because it’s so soft but wow does the flavor go insane with just bun dog and bacon. No toppings Das it
