Woodys have the best. No slaw. I live in SC now but love coming home to Fairmont and Woodys

[@BigE7375]

im in South Carolina as well

[@breighaa]

Love this! Proud Fairmont native! That guy is right - it’s called “sauce” in Fairmont, not “chili.” Woody’s is the MVP in my book 🏆 but everyone has their own taste in a hotdog. And to be fair, what they call a “WV dog” in WV is a “NC dog” in NC - except they put “chili” on them in NC, not “sauce” 😂

[@Axer01250]

I think it's a regional thing, down the road in Randolph County we call it chili or chili sauce, even though it is a meat sauce with no beans. Carolina dogs are just about the same, but in certain parts they use red slaw. Slaw is optional around the Elkins area. Fairmont is the home of the best banging pepperoni rolls around!

[@bradleyheck7204]

Yeah, but in NC they use those awful looking dyed-pink weenies.

[@rudolphlarry]

Woody's uses the cheapest tasting weiners. Get the sauce bun. Mustard, onion and sauce only.

[@tiredofit4761]

Born and raised in southern WV I loved the chili/slaw/mustard dog! So good! Now I live in the deep south and if i ask for slaw on my chili dog they look confused. I’ll go to Sonic and get chili dog and then KFC for slaw… There was a place in Raleigh Mall, Beckley circa 1980’s- Der Daughouse I think it was called. They had the best chili cheese dogs

[@bradleyheck7204]

I remember that Der Doghause! It was pretty good.

[@johnruble45]

There are two kinds of hot dogs... Yann's & everything else. Yann's has been in business continuously since 1927 so they must be doing something right. Legendary.

[@HaveFunWV]

In this video, we are looking for the best West Virginia style hot dog and Yanns doesn’t have slaw, so they weren’t judged. Please search this channel for the Yanns and Chocolate Milk video because we love them too. Thanks for watching.

[@bradleyheck7204]

RIP Sanitary Hot Dogs of Clarksburg.

[@dantoddruns]

Your time and effort on this hot dog opus is appreciated.

[@HaveFunWV]

Thank you for watching

[@JoleAron]

👏👏👏

[@loriashcraft3066]

In Northern WV, most people put SAUCE on their Hot Dog, no slaw. We do NOT call it Chili. Woody's is my favorite! I like these videos, thanks for sharing. :)

[@danieloliver6300]

Woody's makes great chili dogs

[@Sue-zz3lj]

That's not I'm from Wheeling West

[@Sue-zz3lj]

That's not true I'm from Wheeling West Virginia I grew up on slaw dogs at Louie's hot never heard of Woody's maybe they should add slaw to their dogs

[@danieloliver6300]

Woody's has great slaw for topping on a hotdog. Further, "we" includes a lot of us, including me....and I call it chili sauce. Come to Westover and try a WV hotdog at Hometown Hot Dogs,

[@kattaborart5104]

I love Dairy Creme Corner. I am from a bit south of Huntington and I stop at DCC every time I go to Morgantown.

[@daveherron]

Yes. It has slaw. Otherwise order your chili dog and be on your way. Also glad you hit up Hometown in Granville. They're about the best IMO.

[@daveherron]

Im not above upvoting myself on this comment.

[@daveherron]

Also do a pepperoni roll vid please - and WV invented the first tooth brush - had it been invented anywhere else itd been called the teeth brush. ;) You wont find better ppl than in WV. We'll fix your flat tire and give you gas when you get lost.

[@Njnetsfan15]

Woody's is the GOAT.

[@lawrenceburgess5027]

Apex cinematography.

[@gunsort3242]

I've had dogs from all over the country. Slaw dogs from Midway West in Huntington are the best IMO. Can't wait for my next visit to the Tri-state.

[@HaveFunWV]

Midway has some good hot dogs but I recommend Bogeys Driving Range in Tornado, WV on your way down to Huntington and I’ve had 284 WV Style Hot Dogs in WV.

[@gunsort3242]

​@HaveFunWV Thanks for the suggestion! I'll try to get by there in the late summer.

[@BigE7375]

as someone who grew up between Morgantown and Fairmont. Its funny how the hot dogs are different. Morgantown uses the slaw and Fairmont does not

[@zachnickerson2275]

Tito's Sloppy Dogs up here in Wheeling! Yes, there's coleslaw cuz that's the right way 😂

[@bradleyheck7204]

The OTHER Slaw-Optional Region!

[@loganstuebner]

hey love the video man if you ever come to Pennsylvania come to the "Doghouse" in reading PA they have all sorts of crazy dogs my favorite is the devine dog has a piece of fried Canadian bacon, diced jalapenos, cheese, and a little ranch dressing its a flavor explosion

[@HaveFunWV]

We have one more video to finish our search for the best West Virginia style hot dog. Then we start the most unique, I’d love to go to the Doghouse. That Devine Dog sounds great!

[@robertcheslock9636]

Yann's sauce even the mild is too spicy for my wife, I loved them with the hot sauce they wanted you to drink chocolate milk when you ate them. We both like Hometime Hotdogs, she gets the mild with slaw I get medium or hot with onions and slaw. We do them frequently

[@aaronhickman192]

You need to go to Bluefield Wv Dairy Queen homie.

[@timothymiddlekauff8889]

Show Huntington some love. Try Cams hams! Great sandwiches!!!!!

[@HaveFunWV]

Granted this video is for hot dogs. What is the best thing to have a cams hams?

[@timothymiddlekauff8889]

Ham sandwich is legendary. Place has been here a long time. Onion rings are awesome too.

[@HaveFunWV]

@@timothymiddlekauff8889 I WILL GO! VIDEO TO BE RELEASED LATE JANUARY 2023.

[@gunsort3242]

I often used to head to Cams for lunch when I was at Cammack Junior High. Adkins Fat Boy (Later Dwight's) too.

[@madcrafts]

Sorry slaw goes on a WV hotdog always. Without just a chili dog with onions and mustard.

[@HaveFunWV]

That’s exactly what I told the guys. They seemed to like it after I let them try it.

[@tiffanydye7339]

Did you guys try Ritzy’s in Clarksburg?

[@HaveFunWV]

I'm sorry, we did not make it to that place, it's Ritzy's Lunch? If I go to Ritzy's to they make a Unique Hot Dog? I so, what is it?

[@GOSSAMER-ck2ud]

The best hotdog is what you fix in your own house! I prefer pretzel buns, nathans hot dog

[@HaveFunWV]

I’m a big fan of the home style dogs too but I’m a huge fan of English style bun, warmed up on a grill.

[@hillaryaustin2482]

The Clendenin Dairy Queen had the best hotdogs. No competition. The 2016 flood took it, but if you are from Clendenin or ever had one, you know. Not that Dairy Queen franchise crap. The Newmans had their own recipe. Nothing compared.

[@HaveFunWV]

Sorry. I heard many good things about that DQ.

[@rudolphlarry]

Slaw dog is a southern wv thing.

[@jdl.1234]

Genes Dogs are better drunk.

[@HaveFunWV]

Any hot dog is better drunk.

[@cindywagner49]

Sauce chili and onions

[@bradleyheck7204]

Huntington sauce has real meat! Just don't ask what kind of meat. 😜

[@HaveFunWV]

🤣🤣🤣

[@matthutchinson3139]

B&L Hotdogs and Yanns Fairmont were the best and 8th Street (Steak, cheese and hot peppers hoagies

[@HaveFunWV]

We were in search of the best West Virginia Style Hot Dog. However, we made separate video about Yanns. You can find that video on the channel under Unique Hot Dogs.

[@matthutchinson3139]

@@HaveFunWV I have the recipe

[@matthutchinson3139]

B & L Hotdogs moved to Asheville, North Carolina I heard

[@HaveFunWV]

@@matthutchinson3139 bummer.

[@matty7142]

Woodys is the best
