The hot dog is one of the most iconic summer foods of all time. This mystery sausage is boiled, steamed, or grilled before being lovingly laid into a bun. It can be eaten on its own, but really shines when it’s covered in ketchup, mustard, and even relish. There’s practically no limit to the number of toppings that can be added atop one. If you’re not in on chili dogs… we might have to end this relationship.
No matter how you enjoy your hot dog, today is the perfect day to do it. You don’t even have to fire up the grill, because it’s National Hot Dog Day — restaurants all over the country are offering deals. Some are even giving away free hot dogs. Those crazy fools! Handing them out like madmen!
