What toppings do you prefer on a hot dog?

Ketchup, just to cause meltdowns in people from NYC and Chicago

Not from either of those cities but ketchup on a hot dog is gross to me.

But I think ketchup outside of fried potatoes is gross.

Mustard and onions. Sometimes chili. Also bacon.

I'm such a bottom that I couldn't even top a hot dog.

Mustard, onions, sauce and sometimes slaw.

If the wiener is tasty then I skip the sauce and only put onions, mustard and slaw on it.

Mustard and kraut. Yummie

Sticky white creamy cum.

Mustard, white onions, pickels (not relish, preferably)...and only from here:

A smear of mayo, lots of mustard, onions, cheese and chili, if available.

yo pussy stank

mustard and as many grilled onions as you have or can get your hands on.

I don't eat mystery meat.

Banana ketchup

I treat it as a low-budget polish with tomatoes, sport peppers, dill pickle, raw onion, and celery salt.

Mustard is reserved for those times I can't get what I want.

West Virginia style. Chili and cole slaw with mustard and chopped onions.

I'm from the South and I never heard of anyone putting mayo on their hot dog. That 's just gross.

Newsflash -- Cole slaw has mayo in it!

Not always r17

I prefer them plain, which always freaks other people out.

1. Mustard & sweet relish.

2. Chili con carne, shredded cheese, and a few diced onions.

Slaw is more a southern topping, never heard of mayo as a topping.

Dijon mustard and sautéed onions

mustard, onion, chili ............ relish if no chili available.

Same as R14, but with mustard (and sometimes no tomatoes).

If it's a good hot dog, I don't need ketchup. When at home, though, I need both ketchup and mustard.

Veggie dog, please (I like Lightlife's big ones). Topped with tomato wedges, diced sweet onion, and homemade refrigerator bread and butter pickle slices. Mustard, tiny bit of catsup, and a very small amount of mayo applied to the bun to keep all the condiments from sliding around. Side of tots, fries, onion rings or potato salad. I have this a couple times a week, totally a favorite.

Another veggie dog person. Not from the south but I love mayo and onions or cheese and onions. Never mustard or ketchup!

mustard and ketchup

A hot dog makes me lose control!

mustard or mustard and relish.

Never ketchup.

OP, R16 : Mayo on hot dogs is a "southern" thing, if by southern you mean south of the border, aka Mexico.

Mustard and Onion.

Sometimes Chile.

Sometimes mustard, onion and relish.

But never all together.

Mustard & ketchup

At home it usually just a bit of brown mustard and onions if its hotdogs from the butcher shop my brother owns If I'm out then I load them up with mustard, relish, onions or whatever there is because, to me, there isn't much taste to "regular" hotdogs

I'm very pleased with how few people here slap ketchup on hotdogs.

I like Chicago-style hotdogs. Mustard, pickles, peppers, onions, bright green relish. The closest I can get here in NYC is Shake Shack's Shack-cago Dog.

Mustard, cheese, relish, and sometimes chili if the meat is decent. Onions sometimes as well.

That is cute, R36, that you are talking about decent-meat-chili while you are going to eat a HOT DOG.

Now, top with mustard and sauerkraut and call it a mother fucking day.

I always did Mayo and shredded cheese. I'm from Oklahoma and until this thread i've never known anyone else who has done mayo, my family always considered it odd.

Usually just mustard, either yellow or brown. Never ketchup. Sometimes relish, onions or sauerkraut. That's about it. Chili is rare; I see the appeal but I only eat homemade chili, not canned.

Mayo on a hot dog sounds vile, and I love mayo. Shredded cheese? Never saw that. I do love ordering a Texas Tommy in a dinner, though.

Spiral-cut Nathan's or Hebrew National hotdog slowly fried in butter(it opens up a bit to expose some of the insides), and popped into a fresh Martin's potato roll. Nothing else is needed. Tasty, spicy, nice "snappy" texture, you can really appreciate it this way.

I've never heard of a spiral cut hot dog. The extra crispiness inside must be nice.

My mouth. Oh, you meant the kind you eat?

R15 on The Kitchen, Katie Lee who's from West Virginia made a WV hot dog sauce. It looked good: a bean-less chili, like a Coney sauce.

In NZ, an 'American Hotdog' is always sold as either a 6 inch or footlong, and is usually topped with sautéed onions, melted cheese, ketchup and mustard.

That's why they hate us, R44.

Who hates who r45?

This thread makes one snacky.

'usually topped with sautéed onions, melted cheese, ketchup and mustard.'

You meant 'melted cheez', dear.

Well, as far as I know 'cheez' is an American-only thing. In NZ, it's not that authentic. Most places would use grated cheddar, melted in a grill after toasting the long roll.

Cheese, like most dairy and meat products, are high quality there. Not the same highly-processed stuff like in the US, dear.

grated cheddar? That's posh.

Chopped onions and mustard. Dijon, not the yellow crap.

Let me guess, R51, you only just now got to this five-year-old thread because you have 40,000 tabs open in your browser and it takes years -- YEARS! -- to get through them all. Right?

Correct.

Vegan hotdog with mustard, ketchup and relish!

Sweet relish, yellow mustard, and ketchup.

Love it!

When I broil them at home , I cut them lengthwise, and fill with swiss cheese.

R55 that sounds so good!

mustard and relish

Another vote for mustard and sauerkraut—as God intended.

I like Eckrich Jalapeño & Cheddar Smoked Sausage on a wheat bun.

To that, I add spicy brown mustard, diced white onions, dill relish, and Dixieland Hot Chow Chow. Top that with Wolf Brand Chili No Beans and shredded Mexican Cheese, and that's my favorite way to have a hot dog.

onions, sweet relish and ketchup.

Mustard, sweet relish, onions -- in that order.

Ketchup belongs on hamburgers, french fries, and combined with horse radish for fried fish or shrimp cocktail.

I did a taste test once on a former boyfriend's cock -- would a blow job taste better with mustard or ketchup? Not much difference. So then I tried Heinz 57 -- MM mm Good!!!

Sorry, couldn't resist telling that tale. I'll save the buns' story for later.

Onions (Sabrette please)

Or, Mustard and ketchup.

Or, Mustard and onions

Or, Mustard ketchup and onions.

Or, Lube (For those lonely nights)

Mustard, relish, onions, and La Victoria hot green jalapeño taco sauce.

Please don’t use the word “topping.” It makes me horny.

Mustard, relish, sauerkraut

Mayo,mustard, onions, chili and cheese.

All about the tops!

More wiener circle fun! I didn’t like the ending though.......

It’s all about the Coney Dog!!

Mustard. Onions. Sauerkraut.

Or chili and onions once a year.

Anything else is trailer-trash level.

Grey Poupon Mustard and onions.

Chilli and cheddar cheese, butane torched

Cream cheese and avocado

Bonito fish flakes and okonomiyaki sauce

Seaweed and teriyaki sauce

I only eat veggie hotdogs. Mustard and onions

I skipped to the end without reading all the drivel, to tell Y'all that mayonnaise on a hot dog is totally Mexican.

two favorites

Chicago Dog- yellow mustard, chopped white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled sport peppers and a dash of celery salt.

Chili dog-Good chili, white onion & Cheddar cheese.

Mustard and relish. If available, onions and chili.

R74 I didn't know about mayo on hot dogs being Mexican but I love Mexican grilled corn on the cob which is slathered in mayo!

Cream cheese on hot dogs. 'Lincoln logs' were popular years ago - even featured on The Sopranos! Carmela made them for the kids but Tony loved them, too. White bread or a bun, hot dog sliced in half lengthwise, smothered in cream cheese, topped by another sliced hot dog.

I'll take my soy-based dog with chopped onions, a long wedge of bread 'n butter pickle, tomatoes, mustard and catsup. This is a mashup of favorite dogs I used to get at Weinersnitchel.

Most favorite: Mustard and Onion

2nd Favorite: Chili

Sauerkraut and Onions.

I prefer not to eat hot dogs.

I thought mac 'n cheese as a hot dog topping was huge in America? I just tasted one in Australia and it was pretty good

now i want a hot dog

Bon Appétit!

I like them wrapped in bacon before being grilled. Topped with sauteed mushrooms and onions, and some avocado.

If those are not available, then a strong horseradish mustard will also do.

Mustard and onions.

A pizza

curry sauce

or Indian pickle (mixed pickle)

chili is good too

I never eat just one hot dog, so one gets mustard and relish or onions and the other gets ketchup.

Plain mayo on a hot dog sounds icky, and I love mayo. However, mayo plus what in Philadelphia is called hoagie spread but elsewhere I think is called hot pepper relish might be pretty good.

Chili on a hot dog makes it a chili dog, which should be topped with shredded cheese and run under the broiler to melt the cheese. This is too messy (and hot) to eat with your fingers, so I don't count it as a true hot dog. It's a meal all by itself, although potato salad goes nicely with it ... but then potato salad goes with pretty much any American picnic-type food.

Gulden's brown mustard and raw onions

[quote]This is a mashup of favorite dogs I used to get at Weinersnitchel.

R79 Thanks for the memory! Isn't Der Weinerschnitchel where Albert Brooks and his wife wound up working in Lost in America? I have to watch that movie again...

The A & W drive in had the best hot dogs but it was the steamed bun that made it exceptional. A plain steamed dog and bun with a frosty mug of A&W root beer....heaven.

Dijon, and maybe sliced dill pickle. Sometimes, a throw with yellow mustard, like french's.

Grilled onions and sweet hot mustard.

I agree with R19, just plain.

I love the traditional Danish ristet hotdog: remoulade sauce, ketchup, roasted onions, pickled cucumber

It depends. Sometimes plain. Sometimes mustard and American cheese, like Orange Julius. Sometimes kraut, mustard and chopped onion. Sometimes mustard and the red onion sauce.

Italian Hot Dog - Fried potatoes, peppers and onions. This may be a regional thing (I'm in NJ).

Definitely regional, R99.

Chocolate syrup and whipped cream.

Why do other people get so uptight about how other people eat their junk food? No one is forcing YOU to have a hot dog any way than how you want it, so why would you care if someone likes something different on theirs?

R102, this is what Datalounge is all about.

Back in the day, when Howard Johnson's monopolized the turnpike, there was nothing better than their hot dog, with a buttered bun and with spicy mustard.

Bacon and melted Swiss cheese.

Mustard and kraut
