Listen to PugetSoundGuy. He knows things. A true connoisseur of tubular meats. Koegel's Viennas are fantastic, and luckily I can get them at every grocery store and coney joint in my area.This has been an excellent discussion of candidates for second-best hot dog and I definitely would like to try some (or most) of those discussed above.
The best of course is a natural-casing Koegel Vienna made in Michigan. Koegel's is headquartered in Flint and they have been making hot dogs forever. Koegel hot dogs unfortunately are not available in stores nationwide, but they are so popular among those who grew up with them that Koegel's sends a big refrigerated truck across the nation to supply people like me. We got a big supply of their hot dogs and other products when the truck was last in the Seattle area. Google "Koegel's on the Road" for their schedule. Extra points if you get their Flint Coney topping to make Coney Island Dogs. Just add mustard and raw onions. Yum!
His chili choice is sacrilegious though. Detroit-style is where it's at. Image may be NSFW.
