How to Make a Hot Dog Bar

Football season is here and with it comes all the joys of tailgating, bbq-ing, hooting, hollering, and more. My family loves to watch football. Every weekend we religiously pull out the bbq grill and get our party on. This week we made our very own Hot Dog Bar. It’s our own version of homegating.

It wouldn’t be a homegating party without Hebrew National All-Beef Franks. This is the only brand of hotdogs we buy. They have no Artificial Flavors or colors, no fillers, plus they are kosher and gluten free! That is a huge plus! The taste of a Hebrew National All-Beef Frank is something you never forget. They are so full of flavor.

I carried the Hebrew National hot dogs out to my hubby so he could get them grilled. He loves using PAM Cooking Spray for grilling. It really helps to keep food from sticking to the grates, and it gives great grilling lines. He is the grill master in this house, so I trusted him to handle it.

While he was grilling, I got busy inside. Earlier in the day I made a quick trip to the dollar store. They had the perfect Homegating tablecloth, napkins, and decor for only a few dollars. I even found some great football shaped bowls that were perfect for serving the hotdogs at our Hotdog Bar. The best thing about the hotdog bar is there is no wrong way to set it up.

Probably the most important part of our hotdog bar was having an assortment of great toppings so that everyone can make their Hebrew National All-Beef Frank just the way they like. Get creative! Here are some topping suggestions…

• Hunt’s Canned Tomatoes (drained)
• Coleslaw
• Pickle Relish
• Onions
• Guacamole
• Diced Peppers
• Lettuce
• Dill Pickles
• Mustard
• Tomatoes
• Jalapenos
• and more

My family loved having such a wide selection and being able to assemble their own dog. This was a huge hit with everyone. Everyone became a chef. The unique creations were amazing to see…and try.

This is my daughter’s creation. A little bit of everything; relish, onions, lettuce, and peppers.

I really can’t tell you enough how amazing this Hotdog Bar was. It took minimal effort on my part, and everyone could come and go as they pleased to assemble their own hot dogs. I knocked this one out of the park.
