List of hot dogs

This is a list of hot dog dishes. A hot dog is a type of cooked sausage, traditionally grilled or steamed and served in a partially sliced bun. This type of sausage was culturally imported from Germany and popularized in the United States, where it became a working-class street food sold at hot dog stands and carts. It is also sold at fast-food restaurants and convenience stores, as well as being available for home preparation after being purchased at grocery stores.
