If you take a look at the ingredient list of most of the nationally-available hot dogs that you'll find in grocery stores, restaurants, and convenience stores, you may just decide to go with a different snack.
Five Guys is about more than burgers, fries, and peanuts it turns out. The popular chain also offers several sandwiches, some fine milkshakes, and four different hot dog.
Though most Nathan's Famous locations are now operating solely as delivery-based restaurants (some also have a takeout and a few dine-in spots remain) what you will get delivered are classic 100% beef hot dogs.
At Weinerschnitzel, you'll find a lot of hot dogs that are not 100% pure beef, but that's the point. The chain offers Polish hot dogs—which are a mix of beef and pork—a World Famous Original dog—which also has a blend of meats.
Shake Shack's famed "Flat-Top Dogs," which are cooked on a flat-top griddle that gives them a caramelized sear much like the dogs from Five Guys, are 100% beef.
Things get a bit complicated here, so bear with us: Portillo's offers three kinds of hot dogs, one being decidedly not all beef, namely the Polish sausage.
Sonic makes a mean hot dog, with included toppings being diced onions, ketchup, relish, and mustard, and the option to add chili, jalapeños, pickles, shredded cheese, and tomatoes.
A dark horse entry, perhaps, but what else can you call the hot food for sale at Costco superstores other than fast food? And amazingly cheap food, in terms of price, too, as the dogs there are a buck a piece.
