    Well what is a sandwich? According to marriage webster:

    two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between

    Well damn, that sounds like a hotdog!

    I will often take two hotdogs, cut them in half longitudinally, and lay those out on two pieces sandwich bread.

    Ergo…hotdog sandwich.

        my cool brother taught me the fattest of assery in hotdogdom and i can probably handle one of these a year. they’re great tho

        My Cool Brother’s Baco-dogs

        Ingredients and Build Order
        bun
        mayo
        crumbled bacon
        narrow all beef hot dogs (sliced lengthwise)
        thick freshly grated cheddar of your preferred sharpness (hard)
        dill relish
        a thin squiggle of ketchup
        a thicker but not overwhelming line of brown deli mustard
        a dusting of celery salt (i can’t remember if this was in the original recipe or i added it after experiencing a real chicago dog)

        Method
        you want to fry the bacon, slice the hot dog lengthwise and fry the dog in the bacon grease. fry until you’ve got some good browning/maillard bullshit on the cut side, but fry both sides. then build the dog in the order above, from outside to in. yes, you have stuff in between the halves of the hotdog. sometimes we toast the bun, usually not because there’s enough hogfat in there already. also mayo-ing hot bread ain’t the best.

        You get two hotdogs in the time it usually takes to eat one. It’s called efficiency, my friend. We’re visionairies.

    Counter arguments, a hotdog is a sausage, the bread is a condament. When you buy hotdogs at the store you’re taking about the pack, when you’re cooking a hotdog, you’re taking about the sausage being cooked. A hotdog on the grill is not in the bun. When you’re eating a hotdog without a bun, you’re still eating a hotdog.

    In the other direction, a hotdog with mustard is still called a hotdog meaning the mustard has no say in the state of the hotdog.

    Furthermore, we have splitlink sandwiches so a sausage as sandwich still needs the sandwich modifier. When I say “hotdog sandwich” it’s bothersome because it conjures the idea of hot dogs between two slices of bread.

    So if a hotdog is a hotdog with or without the bread, and a hotdog is a hotdog with or without the mustard, than the bread plays the same role and becomes a condament for the eating of a hotdog that belongs firmly in the category of sausage.

    Spare points to back this up is taco, chicken taco, fish taco, street taco, all need the modifier “taco”. If I say we’re having fish and serve a tuna taco, I’ve not given you the accurate information. The same goes for wraps, without the “wrap” modifier you get different information. In reverse, we do not ask for a bun to get a hotdog. Following along that line, we have split bun sandwiches which use a bun and are not explicitly hotdogs.

    Lastly, with this information you can order the incredibly cursed, split link split bun sandwich with mustard which presents as a cut hotdog with mustard but is in fact an entirely different thing all together.

      I will fight you on this.

      A hotdog is a specific type of soft sausage inside a bun. If you have just the sausage part you would not call that a hotdog (at least not where I live) but a frankfurter (we have a special word for this type of sausage).

      The bread needs to be a certain shape as well. Long round and thin. Either one where it goes in from the top (sliced by length)

      like this or pushed in the same way as the longer axis of bread goes like this

      .

      If you put it inside two slices of bread you made a frankfurter sandwich. So thus it needs to be the right sausage in the right bread to be considered a hotdog.

                all i can think is that it must be uneven lighting. that draws attention to and creates deeper shadows on part of the photo (more obvious on the photo of the raw rolls) and covers up other shadows in a way that makes it harder to intuit depth on 2D images.

                thanks for the recipe btw!

        See, I think this may be a regional issue more than a semantic issue because around these parts that horrifying electric bun spike is the quickest way to not get invited to the next barbique.

          We usually don’t even make hotdogs on barbeques. I cannot recall the last time we did. Balkan grill has so many better options to choose from.

            Balkan grill

            So I looked this up and found a restaurant in Germany? The food looks amazing and I’m going to have to find recipes for half their menu.

            So the way this discussion is going, it reminds me of an old cookbook that describes curry as “a gravy laden with spices and made with the milk of coconut.” While the description conveys the details well, I don’t think any sane person would say gravy and curry are the same category. The issue comes from the difference in cultural meanings and the way languages steal words. My classifications are based off the mid western American concepts of hotdog and there for would not work outside of a region familiar with it.

            I guess the only good option to finally solvr this debate would be a latin taxonomy like we do for animals and plants.

              Send me the name and place of the restaurant so I can check out how authentic their food is. Or I can send you some recipes.

              I don’t think any sane person would say gravy and curry are the same category.

              Why? Culinary, curry and gravy are quite similar, and serve similar functions. Obviously they don’t taste all that similar, but I don’t think that really matters much when you consider the vast variety of flavors that curries come in.

              And actually, now that I think of it, Japanese curries do share quite a few flavors with a Western meat-dripping-based gravy. In fact, I’m pretty sure the directions on the package curry cubes I get from the Asian grocer refer to the curry sauce as “gravy”. So yeah, actually, plenty of sane people put curry and gravy in the same category, for solid reasons.

    Hot dog is like it’s own category. You can make all kinds of dogs. Hot dog, veggie dog, smokie dog, chicken dog… If it’s got a weiner then it’s a dog.

      So a soup with noodles is nachos but a soup without noodles is a salad.

      What is the definition of noodles in this scenario?

      Is a Potato soup a salad and a Gnocchi soup Nachos?

      Is it the adding of carbs in general or is it specifically noodles?

      What about wild rice soup? Wild rice is a seed. So is it a Salad or a Nacho?

      Also, why is a Turducken a salad? Prepared correctly its a sushi or even a calzone.

      Also also the cube itself, does it have to be a carb outer layer? Pigs in a blanket are considered a sushi but what of smoked sausages wrapped in bacon?

        Naturally.

        I mean, this is a common prawn sandwich from us in Sweden:

        You can get them anywhere and they not only taste great, but smell fresh and lovely.

        Though, I can absolutely see a reason why this should not be allowed on a plane; shellfish allergy.

            While I don’t particularly like drugs, I can’t see our current system having done anything but fail.

            I’d rather legalize drugs with a decent tax to cover rehab clinics, than having the current illegal drug trade in Sweden be a constant drain on society.

            So yeah, if I get to vote on the issue, I’ll vote for legalization.

              oh dude you don’t want me to get ranting about legalization. it’s not even fully legal here and that means that i a lot of medical care gets denied to me, despite the fact that the local medical schools’ expert on cannabis uses me in her lectures as their ideal patient for medical cannabis treatment.

              i appreciate the intercontinental support tho
