I used to live in the northeast. I have been telling new friends how good the food was on the mainland. I am especially trying to get Hummell(sp?) Brothers Franks. They are made in New Haven CT. Definitely the best Hotdog I have ever had :p
Anyhow if anyone knows of someplace I can contact that ships food...

I hear Cogal hotdogs are good. They are in MI. I have had almost every national brand. Doing school fieldtrips as part of my job I bet I have cooked thousands over an open fire grill in the 13 years I have worked here. The best by far for grilling consistence are echrich beef and Kroger Beef.
 
For me, half of what makes a good frank or hot dog, is the toppings and the bun. I live about 90 miles from Chicago and I have become a convert to the Chicago dog. A poppi seed bun is a must; toppings include mustard, this bright green relish, tomato, onion, a hot pepper or 2, and the secret is to shake some celery salt on top. There now are 4 or 5 places in Milwaukee where they sell pretty good Chicago dogs.

As for the dog itself, Usinger makes a might good dog, with a real natural casing.
 
Usinger's, the best bratwurst available outside of Germany. :thumbs:

Klements is good and easy to get ahold of in southern wisconsin because of their grocery store distribution. Also make a great italian sausage.

Beer, Cheese, and Sausage... the 3 things wisconsites had to be proud of before the Green Bay Packers got Brett Farve and a winning record again. :D
 
Hi Newbie here, but am in the shipping business, and yes I have shipped weinies all over the world!! some attached to the owner, some not!! I would suggest to save you money, that you contact the mfg directly arrange purchase, and fedex delivery with dry ice to ship to you. they will ship in a styrofoam cooler. Was I not in Texas I would ship for you but I cant get these franks in Texas....good luck and happy grilling....FullMoon :thumbs:
 
I'll toss in my 2 cents about The Hot Dog Shoppe in Warren Ohio. Not the best but pretty good and cheap. :thumbs:
 
Thanks for the ideas.
I contacted the mfg. it'll cost $100 to ship 10 lbs of franks :0
I remember the franks being so delicious I'm willing to pay for em. I was talking to a guy at work about this and he might do a box split with me :p
Somehow $50 for 5 lbs of franks doesn’t seem as expensive :D
