FAQs Archive - The Original Round Dog

Q: I always either have too many hot dog buns left over or I run short. I wish there was a solution. Any ideas?

One of the best things about the Round Dog, aside from its taste, is the fact that you never have to buy hot dog buns again. You can use a hamburger bun, sandwich roll, or really any round roll you like, since they’re the same shape as a Round Dog. Sorry, hot dog bun makers!

Q: How big are these compared to traditional hot dogs?

The traditional hot dogs you find in the supermarket are about 1.5 to 2 ounces each, which means that the average adult typically eats two to feel satisfied. The Original Round Dog is 3.5 ounces each, so it’s more than twice the size of a traditional hot dog.

Q: Is the shape really an advantage when cooking these on a grill?

It’s easy for anyone to cook The Original Round Dog to perfection. That’s because its patented shape and size allows for more meat to meet the heat. Unlike traditional hot dogs, they don’t roll around the gill, so they cook more evenly. And you don’t have to split them in half to give them more surface area. A couple of minutes on each side and they’re done! Plus, the Flavor Ridges create the ideal cooking surface, so you get just the right amount of caramelization.
