Saturday, September 22, 2012 was the 9th Annual, New Jersey Hot Dog Tour, and The Hotdogman made the trip south to participate. I thought I would hit my 100th hot dog joint on the tour, but there were only 6 stops instead of 8, so I still have 2 more to go. I made a […]

National Hot Dog Month Tour stop number 29 brought myself, Little Miss, the Photobomber, and Miss Camera Shy to Naughty Dawgs Express in Dartmouth, MA.

Stop number 22 on the National Hot Dog Month Tour was at Gary’s Best in New Bedford for some breakfast hot dogs. We stopped at Gary’s Best last summer, it’s the only stop where I had two hot dogs last summer. The reason I had two was the delicious and unique linguica sauce. Mrs. HDM, […]

Owners Steve and Linda Bock, both Chicago natives, served the Metrowest area’s only authentic Chicago hot dogs. Their hot dog business is named after their oldest daughter (now 31) whose nickname […]

Day 15 of the National Hot Dog month Tour found me back in Wareham, MA at a popular summer shack called Kool Kone. If ever there was a day I’d like a hot dog delivered, today was the day. It was a hazy, hot, and humid New England Summer day- the kind best spent at […]
