What Stadium makes the Best Hotdogs and The Worst hotdogs?

[Great One]

OK, this thread is about ballpark dogs, so you're point is valid. But get on the southbound D, F, N or Q subway into Brooklyn and ride to the end of the line, Stillwell Ave, Coney Island. Go across the street to Nathan's and order a couple of big juicy skin-on dogs, and then see what you think. And then remember those July 4th lunatics who eat 50+ of them in 12 minutes.

I have a friend who has been begging me since July to go to Coney Island with him for the 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest. We might be there this year. I heard it really gets crowded that day. Would have to get there very early to avoid any lines and to get a good spot for the contest.

Regular hot dogs - Whatever they had that day at Shea

Foot long hot dogs - probably the ones that they would sell at any vendor. I know they have those at Madison Square Garden.

Are you talking about the Nathan's dogs at the Coney Island location or the stuff in the super market and their mall locations? Totally different product.

I also am not to crazy about the regular Nathan's hot dogs as compared to say another hot dog, although I do eat them. I prefer their foot long dogs; more meat and reasonably priced when I'm in New York, but I wish they were made bigger. They're about the size of two of my fingers put together. Not meaning to be critical, because at the end, I did enjoy them, but would like to see some meat in those hot dogs.

The Metrodome has some of the worst hot dogs I ever tasted. On Wednesdays, dome dogs are a dollar. Do not forget to bring Tums with you becuse you will have aftertaste for about a month.

From the stadiums that I have visited so far, I do have to say that the hot dogs at GABP have been the best IMO. The worst I would have to put Shea up there, perhaps I expected better from New York when it comes to making hot dogs. Might have been the way they were made that day, I don't know.

Lol its just annoying to have your state's culture a certain way for 50 years and then have people come around in the past 5 to 10 years and tell you its wrong and heres how you should do it.

Sounds like a damn good plan to get other people to cook for you LOL

"you think your way is so much better? prove it and cook it!"

Heck, the plan works for me and I have the cleanliest kitchen in town

Thats a touchy subject for you? It's trivial. No one is wrong on right on this subject. But getting touchy about it.... okie dokie.

Bamboo Wok, perhaps?

My wife's take-out of choice. I'm take it or leave it on it. The best chinese food I had was the sit-in restaraunt in the town I grew up in Maryland. Sadly it is long gone.

Chinese food in general, however, is usually pretty satisfying to me. So I'm not that picky about it.

That might have been it, but not 100% sure. I agree how chinese food usually being satisfying. Just each region has its own sauce and some are bolder than others.

Before you doubt me ----- has YOUR favorite mustard been to space? Astronaut Dave Thomas takes Stadium Mustard with him on the space shuttle.....

I doubt it.... but then Space Food Sticks were once taken into space, and they were so bad they were discontinued! LOL.

I've been to the West Palm Beach area and the Naples/Ft Myers area... I recall alot of panda express and (something) wok franchise kind of places as oppose to chinese joints inside of a shopping center. Must be a marketing thing.... and I will enjoy the chuckles and disbelief looks when I go home and make small talk. lol

It gets advertised like that down here in South Florida all the time. Perhaps its just saavy marketing from the Chinese restaraunt folks to make all the NY/NJ transplants feel at home, but it certainly works.

Oh god no, new yorkers come down here and complain to us that food isn't like it is in new york. 1. I don't care. 2. If the food is that good in ny then go back, we shouldn't have to change our pizza and chineese food for you. Can you tell thats a touchy subject for me?

I have personally never in my life heard it being called "new york style chinese food". Ever. NY pizza yes.... but New York Style Chinese Food? That's the silliest thing I ever read.

This is one thing I've never, ever understood about New Yorkers (and in South Florida we've got a lot of transplants): "New York Style" Chinese Food. I've heard New Yorkers cry bloody murder if their chinese food isn't advertised as so-called "New York Style Chinese Food".

I always assumed Chinese food was, you know, Chinese styled (or more accurately Szechuan or Hunan styled).

Again, it's a regional thing. That have their way of cooking it and use different products and so forth. Alot of people say it's the water.

I would think that anyone from South Florida who never been up to New York will have a different reaction. The chinese food is probably a much stronger and bolder taste to them, and probably too strong.
