Is that a pickle I see peeking out? And no chili?

That is a great photo of a hot dog that make a person want to take a bite. Kudos to you for knowing how to eat a hot dog without catsup!!
Great shot but no cheese and yellow mustard?

Good shot but I don’t see any mustard!!

Where I live in the south, anything other than mustard, chili and onions is considered a minor sacrilege, however slaw is allowable. It’s so standard you don’t even have to specify in many places - just ordering a hot dog will get you the combination.

TriX, JustJill, Curmudgeon, and foodie65!! Thank you all for a Very interesting take on the Good ol' Hotdog view!!
~ I find it fascinating how we all grew up with certain tastes for Hotdogs and Burgers if they were a part of your growing up, or just a regional thing.
I grew up with my Mom boiling hotdogs on the stove and putting them in a plain hotdog bun. Catsup/Ketchup was available as was French's yellow mustard and Sweet Pickel relish. That was all! I always just used the mustard and relish only. My brother did ketchup only as I recall - I don't think he did relish...I'll have to ask him!
~ So that was quite an eye-opener when I left home out of High School and when to the Big City (Portland, Ore) and discovered a variety of ways food was prepared other than my immediate family ways! For one was a place called "Nick's Famous Coney Island" which is still in business - amazing differences to what I grew up with! Plus a flurry of other dog styles throughout the city. ....Food TRULY is an adventure to the uneducated boy/girl!!
My dog now: a bit of Mayo, plus mustard (Dijon/Frenches Yellow), a bit of cheese of some sort, and again, sweet pickle relish! Done! Chili Dogs a Whole Nuther' thing!! ...Whooohoo!!
~The dog in this pic is from a market in Langlois, Oregon that they say they are famous for! While it was good, it was just not my style. If I ever get another from there, I'll opt for Chili or something else... only time will tell!!

I’ve been known to have a Tangueray or Bombay and tonic with a couple of hot dogs as well.

Nice catch,
Utah970!! The Gin in question......
Fangs a lot for posting! You put the bite on that one. As to gin, Bogart's from African Queen, Gordons, or in luxury mode, Bombay Sapphire.

The best hot dog I have had came from a street vendor in Chicago IL. It was a Chicago dog. You have to build it the right way. I can't get one in this area so I have to build my own. I can't even get poppy seed hot dog buns I have to make my own of that too. The dog has to be all beef too. Hebrew National makes the best!

Alas, the Bogart's Gin is not available in my area
Sounds good from the product description though! I like Bombay Sapphire but
The Wife is not a fan. We have as our #1 gin, Aviation, out of Portland Oregon.

If you like interesting Gins, let me suggest Conniption Gin from Durham, North Carolina (if it’s available in your area) - available in both regular (44%) and “Navy” strength (57%). Not cheap, but excellent.
