"It's an acquired taste"..... 

You occasionally hear that term in the food world both regionally and across the globe.

It's short for "no freakin way will I eat that stuff".    Toledo dog I got a kick out of that one.   

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SO any other real world ways you enjoy your hotdogs off the grill or boiled ?    Believe it or not I will eat mine either grilled or boiled depending on the toppings.

I happened to run across this tidbit in my search 🔍 for new and different recipes for our GAMEDAY collection.  Unique 🌭 hotdog recipes.

1. Pineapple, Bacon, and Teriyaki Hot Dogs: Putting fruit on your hot dog may not be a basic instinct, but it’s one we should all develop. Pineapple is a great choice, especially when paired with bacon, scallions and teriyaki sauce. (via Shared Appetite)

2. Loaded Buffalo Hot Dogs: Blue cheese, hot sauce and mozzarella, oh my! If there was ever anything more perfect than combining classic Buffalo and hot dogs, we don’t know what it is. These have to be on your menu for the next game day. (via That Oven Feelin’)

3. Caesar Salad Hot Dogs: We know what you’re thinking: Why would you want to ruin your perfectly good beefy hot dog with a salad? Hear us out! The lettuce is minimal, the flavor is huge AND there are Parmesan crisps. Yep, you’re convinced. (via What’s Gaby Cooking)

4. California Hot Dogs: Californians can’t have just any old hot dogs. They have to be filled with fresh ingredients and artisanal toppings. Try sun-dried tomatoes, goat cheese and avocados to start with. (via Little Scratch Kitchen)

5. Hot Dogs With Chipotle Cheese Sauce and Bacon-Corn Relish: Say *hello* to summer on a hot dog. Between the chipotle cheese sauce and bacon-corn relish, these hot dogs are going to be on your cookout menu all season long. (via Cooking and Beer)

6. French Croissant Hot Dogs With Crispy Bacon: An easy way to transform your hot dog quickly is to think outside of the bun. Using something like a croissant will add interesting texture and flavor that it otherwise wouldn’t have. (via Climbing Grier Mountain)

7. Southwestern Guacamole Hot Dogs: We know that guac is amazing on everything, but it’s exceptionally good on a juicy hot dog. Adding black beans to your usual recipe bumps up the nutritional factor and totally justifies eating hot dogs as a full meal. (via Kim’s Cravings)

8. Hawaiian Hot Dogs With Grilled Pineapple and Teriyaki Mayo: Grilling pineapple along with your hot dogs gives them a smoky flavor and makes them even sweeter. If you like things spicy, top with fresh or pickled jalapeños after drizzling with teriyaki mayo. (via The Endless Meal)

9. Southern Comfort Hot Dog With Bacon, Baked Beans and Slaw: There’s no need to waste valuable real estate on your paper plate when you can just pile everything on your hot dog. Save room for pasta salad and add your baked beans and slaw to your dog… You *won’t* be disappointed. (via A Spicy Perspective)

10. Hoisin Glazed Hot Dogs With Fresh Pineapple Salsa: When you’ve charred your hot dogs beyond repair, a fresh salsa can do wonders to bring them back to life. Sprinkle with feta cheese and a bit of parsley and you’ve completely transformed your damaged goods. (via Port and Fin)

11. Queso Cheese Hot Dogs: Most of us would probably eat a shoe as long as it’s covered in queso. Thankfully, this time the queso is covering a tasty all-beef hot dog and is topped with classic Mexican garnish. (via Little Kitchen Big World)

12. Seattle Hot Dog: A classic Seattle dog consists of a hot dog (obvi), caramelized onions and cream cheese. Yes, you heard correctly, and it’s amazing. You can add whatever additional toppings you like, but do not under any circumstances omit the cream cheese. We’re watching. (via Show Me the Yummy)1

13. Sriracha Slaw Hot Dogs: One category that regular hot dogs lack in is texture. Add a pile of crunchy and spicy Sriracha slaw and that problem is solved instantly. Just don’t forget to make extra slaw for next weekend’s BBQ too. (via Builicious)

14. Thai Style Hot Dogs: This Thai twist on the American classic is a serious adventure for your taste buds. It’s safe to say you probably haven’t had a hot dog with green papaya and dried shrimp slaw, but once you try it, you’ll be hooked. (via Hapa Nom Nom)

In the unique 🌭 hotdog recipes a few do look interesting.  Just getting ready for the 2021 Cleveland Draft Day and the GAMEDAY season to come.

Do these appear good to you ?  I might actually try one of them.

I regret not starting my homemade sauerkraut to have it to take to Canton Mike's. I did go out and buy an actual 2 liter jar that is actually made for that purpose, with an automatic pressure releaser. Homemade kraut with good hotdogs is excellent.

Unless you don't like kraut....

Maybe I'll make some good  crackers with cream cheese and anchovie. Or just Veggie Thins with a good sharp cheddar cheese.

My favorite hotdogs have always been and still are with sauerkraut (onions optional) with French's yellow mustard and a few drops of Tabasco sauce, Lay's chips on the side......mmmmm could I go for a few now !

My grandmother made the absolute best homemade sauerkraut back in the day -but- my wife makes a really good kraut now.

I still might venture out and try a few new varieties maybe hotdogs and guac ?  Might love it or hate it..... we'll see.  You will never know unless you try something new once in awhile.  

Until then bon appetit !

I personally don't do the veggie meat thing but choices are out there.

One of my brothers and his wife are vegans and get into that stuff.

The wide world of eating is out there.

With the NFL Draft coming up soon from CLEVELAND OHIO how about a really easy classic for snacking BUFFALO WINGS -and- let your oven do the work.  ONLY 3 ingredients great for GAMEDAY.

 

COOK TIME  1  HOUR.    https://www.mrfood.com/Appetizers/Buffalo-Wings-from-Mr-Food

 

Why waste time and money on take-out when our easy recipe for a big batch of baked Buffalo chicken wings is so good?! These wings will literally fly off your party platter!

What You'll Need

• 5 pounds split chicken wings, thawed if frozen
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
• 3/4 cup cayenne pepper sauce.  (your choice on hot, medium, sweet or whatever)

What to Do

 

1. Preheat oven to 425 degree F.
2. Place wings on baking sheets and bake 30 minutes. Turn wings over and bake 30 more minutes, until browned. Drain well and place in a large bowl.
3. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in pepper sauce; toss with cooked chicken wings. Serve immediately.

Makes 40 to 50 appetizer-sized pieces.

Preparation Tip

If you want to make these in advance, bake the wings ahead of time and store them in the fridge or freezer. Then, before serving, simply warm them in the oven and toss them with the warm sauce.

My loose meat sandwich...breaking down amounts is easy....

 

 3lb lean ground beef...serves 8 -12

1 jumbo white onion

soy sauce

Worcestershire sauce

Vinegar

Brown sugar

Beef broth 1-2 cans

Cook beef, chop well...drain 95% of fat

add...3tbs of the soy and Worcestershire, and 3 rounded tbs of brown sugar, and vinegar. I don't usually measure this all that closely...just do your thing.  A little more brown sugar and vinegar wouldn't hurt.

Grate in the onion. 

Add condensed beef broth and enough water to cover.

 

Boil off liquid until most is cooked out.  Keep chopping beef, you want it fine.  Keep stirring so it doesn't burn as the liquid gets low. 

 

Serve on bun with dill pickle and mustard.

Well Friday afternoon, Draft Day 2 I came home from the hospital and wanted one of my favorite hot grilled sandwiches my wife's GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH with American cheese.  Then kick back and watch the Draft and some Tribe.

Together with a dill pickle, green Spanish olives and Lay's original chips.  For dinner it was WEDGEWOOD PIZZA  the house special with mushrooms and extra cheese and an 8" Wedding soup pizza and a salad.

You don't always need a super fancy meal an old favorite can do just fine.

The other two grilled cheese recipes will come soon enough.   Bon appetit !
