yeah shipping food with dry ice should only apply to uncooked product like awesome Kobe beef, fresh seafood etc... shipping cooked meals with dry ice just does not work out.

Not to mention needlessly expensive and not worth the effort probably in this case.

Oh yeah, I figure that's a pretty good use of startup money for a risky business.

Also can someone further south than me tell me what in the name of god "beef cub water" is? Like weak beef stock?

Probably beef cube water, or bouillon.

I have lived in Alabama and Texas all my life and never heard that at all. Wonder if they meant beef cube water, as in bouillon cube.

Ah yeah, that makes more sense, although I'll likely be using stock paste.

(I've worked out with Wayne that I'll be attempting to re-create his dogs at my house once I get a chance to go shopping, so if the media comes knocking on his door, as they're likely to, he has some really excellent photographs to show off his food. I've gotten extremely detailed instructions on how to make a Memphis-style BBQ dog.)

The plaque was Wayne's idea, we're trying to make it easier for him so he doesn't have to spend a lot of his own money on recognition, which honestly is something that Wayne's more interested than the thread is.

Long story short, shut up.

Unless you've been here for the whole ride, half of this has been trying to talk dogman OUT of all the recognition he wants to give, because it would either dominate his restaurant or put him in the poorhouse. We've actively tried NOT to influence this guy's business as much as possible, all of the recognition that's being talked about was his idea (except the map, we thought of that because maybe it would be cheaper and easier for him to do than a plaque).

ACTUAL TOPICAL EDIT: Wayne has contacted me and asked me who made the "Home of the Frog Dog" image, as he says he would like to use it in promotional material. Could someone either link me to his profile or have the dude PM me so I can put him in touch to get that all sorted out?

Email sent. :D Tell Wayne I'd be happy to do any other little cartoon logos or whatnot for him as well, if he wants more.

I'm really curious about what the frog dog will actually be.

Extra relish?

Green ketchup?

Avocado?

Tuna salad with relish and wasabi mixed in?

Live frogs?

Leavin' this up to the dogmaster himself I think. I suspect just a bunch of relish and maybe some mustard or something.

Frankfurters(hotdogs) are German, Catsup(ketchup) is English, the two do not get along.

Yeah I know Ketchup started in asia, but the Brits are the ones who made it this sweet, tomatoey thing.

They refer to different types of sausages, basically. Frank is short for frankfurter, a type of sausage made in Frankfurt, Germany. Wiener refers to Vienna, and the sausages they made there. Hot dog seems to have originated with a type of sausage referred to as a dachshund. Cooking them made them "hot dogs." It is now more or less a generic term for any sausage that is of similar shape.

Other similar types of sausage are knackwurst, bratwurst, kielbasa (Polish sausage), and probably a few others I can't think of right off. Basically, sausage making was an art in Europe, and every town had it's own specialty. Hence, there's a thousand different varieties that look rather similar.

You are a literal monster. Bratwurst should be eaten with mustard or curry ketchup.

If you want mayo to go along with that, put it on your fries. Also, put some ketchup on there as a well, so it's red and white and delicious.

Such graceful, delicate creatures.
Having only recently discovered it, I've found that Yum Yum Sauce tastes good on hot dogs. But it also tastes good on pretty much anything I've tried it on, so it's probably cheating.
