    With the July 4th holiday less than a month from now I've already bought two packs of my favorite Hot Dogs, Nathan’s Famous Skinless Beef Franks.

    What's your favorite brand of dogs? Here's an article from Consumers Report magazine on their test results for the best dog out there.

    I like a skin on dog too. As long as its beef or beef / pork most are ok. No chicken / turkey dogs for me. Yuk.

    Smaller, IMO.

    Which might explain how the number consumed during the hot dog eating contest, keeps getting higher each year. :yes:

    I love a good hotdog. But the best hotdogs are pork butt on the smoker
