Grill Thrill

I was reading about hot dogs the other day. This was sparked by my visit to Costco. I had a hot dog from the food court and it was not as good as they were when they served Hebrew National. I've known for awhile that they don't sell Hebrew National at the food court. But i was interested to find out if it was public knowledge. Due to the fact that they still have the Hebrew National hot dog posted on the sign at a couple of locations Ive been to. But they have replaced the HN umbrellas with Kirkland signature. Anyways that's another story.

While i was looking for info on that change i came across a website that sparked an idea for my summer grilling.
Check out the website if you get a chance

My idea was that instead of grilling the same hot dog each time. I would grill a different brand of hot dog each week and post on it. Hoping to find some great tasting dogs.

I used to buy only Hebrew National but Costco no longer sells the jumbo ones and they are to expensive in the market. By the way Costco replaced selling the HN jumbo hot dog in the store with Kirkland Signature which i have bought exactly 2 times and then decided to never buy those again.

In the summer of 2010 i was at the Ventura County Fair and I noticed they had a Pinks hot dog stand and i was reading the signs and read that they use Hoffy Brand hot dogs.

Ive been grilling the 1/4 pound Hoffy Beef Hot Dogs since.
I am excited to try a few differnt brands and see which is the best to me.

So starting today i will post atleast one differnt brand each week.
Please come back to my site and see how things are cooking up.

Thanks for visiting.
