Dogs like hot dogs too

This is how my heart leaps when I see a hot dog

Pop Up Dog

The other week I checked out the PHS Pop Up Beer Garden on South Street.  After a couple hours of drinking beers and delicious strawberry sangria, we worked up a hunger.  The beer garden is right next to Jamaican Jerk Hut, but we went for the convenience of the Dietz & Watson truck parked right in the garden.  I tried the Philly Frank.  It was described as having a "pepper hash," which equated to raw chunks of bell peppers and onions.  I could have dealt with that if my hot dog wasn't also lukewarm.  Totes disappointing.  Save yourself the heartache and get some Jerk Hut if you get the munchies at the Pop Up.

Notice the square end of the hot dog as further evidence that it was barely touched by the grill.

Happy National Hot Dog Day

To celebrate we tried to make up for 5 years of not posting?

Dog Shack, Ocean City, NJ (PRESENT DAY)

Even though we haven't posted in roughly 5 years, we've been eating hot dogs all this time and recently found ourselves at the Dog Shack in OC. We are creatures of habit, what can I say? This time around the hot dogs were meh (seriously dudes, get your bun situation together).

Cathy's hot dog

You may wonder what that weird blob on Cathy's hot dog photo is... it's the specter of the seagull that attacked Cathy's pizza.  We shall call this seagull Pizza Chest.  And yeah, we ate pizza and hot dogs pretty much in the same sitting because it's what we do.

Hot Dog Fail: In Pictures (from 5 years ago)

Dog Shack, Ocean City, NJ


Editors note: This post is 5 years old and for some reason we never published it. Here is your 5 year old hot dog information, but we have gone there recently. Newer post to follow... maybe. If we get around to it.

We had a lovely lady date in Ocean City, NJ and discovered a new (ed . note: it was new 5 years ago) hot dog spot right on the Boardwalk - The Dog Shack.  It looked pretty new and a Google search revealed that they just opened earlier this season.  The Dog Shack had a really large menu that included several different hot dogs and burgers.  The girl who took our order also offered us a free sample of some sort of watermelon slushie, which probably would have been better with some vodka in it (oh, family-oriented, dry Ocean City).

Old Philly Dog
I was feeling too hot to be adventurous, so I went with the tried and true Chicago Dog.  It came with the traditional toppings, but I was impressed that they got the neon green relish and sport peppers right. Lots of places skimp in this area.  I got mustard all over my hands, but it was delicious and I didn't care about being messy because how can you eat a Chicago Dog and not get messy?

Chicago Dog
We also found something called "Zombie House," which was located in an old peanut store on the boardwalk.  Just in case you're interested more in zombies than hot dogs.
