Personal Suggestion: This hot dog is perfect during sporting events, hot dogs are an integral part of July Fourth. New Yorkers consumed more hot dogs than anyplace else in the country, according to the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council. For the street-cart type, top the dog with mustard, sauerkraut and that red, zesty onion sauce, and sometimes relish. For the deli style, grill the dog and top it with sauerkraut and mustard.
