When I make a hot dog, I cont the bun open, but also hollow it out a little… this gives ample room for extras and allows you to actually ‘close’ the bun and avoid spillage.
Comment on I hate it when people use pictures showing the condiments only on top of a hot dog.

What I dislike about hot dogs is the fact that the sausage is bigger than the buns, I want smaller sausage so that I can fit more toppings and condiments on it without any of it spilling out from the sides with every bite, a plain sausage and bun is boring for me

My grocery store has started carrying “hot dog pitas”! You can fit so many toppings!
(Or really just a lot of onions and chili)

The sausage being too big is a more common complaint than people realize. Everyone assumes bigger is always better, but past a certain size it can be uncomfortable or even painful.
You can work your way up to bigger sausages, though. Take your time, try to stay relaxed, and don’t forget to use a condiment!

Sometimes I can’t even fit my mouth around it

Some people think it’s normal to experience pain and even bleeding when eating a sausage for the first time, but with gentle stretching you can usually mitigate any discomfort. A few minutes a day for a few weeks is often enough. Be sure to have open lines of communication and a strong trust relationship with your chef.

Lmao what? I’ve never heard of of anything asking for a more imbalanced meat to bun ratio.
What other toppings are you trying to add? If a Chicago dog can have all its toppings with a polish sausage there’s no reason a normal hot dog couldn’t hold more of what you need.

I disagree, I feel like the bread to dog ratio is always slightly too high, and I end up tearing some roll off

I just position mine so the end is how I want it, and sometimes that means the first bite is mostly bread.
