Wiener Wednesday: Sausage in Biscuits
This week’s recipe comes from Better Homes & Gardens Meat Cookbook (1971 edition) Sausage in Biscuits! That sounds tasty. Sausage: good. Biscuits: very good. Kinda like Nic’s British Sausage Rolls–which are just little pockets of heaven. But then you get into the recipe and realize that this is made from refrigerator biscuits, canned Vienna Sausages,Continue reading Wiener Wednesday: Sausage in Biscuits
Wiener Wednesday: Blue Cheese Dogs
Hello, my little Frankophiles! It is Wiener Wednesday and by now all the votes have been counted. The people have spoken and we know that the president is——-oh, but I am writing this on Tuesday night! And I am blissfully unaware of what the returns are because I am watching Gymkata on Encore. You mightContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Blue Cheese Dogs
Wiener Wednesday: Tom Boy & Baby Hot Dogs with Pa’s Hot Dog Relish
Greetings! Welcome to Wiener Wednesday! I wish that I could start this out on a more positive note, but I want to kill myself right now. This post was epic, detailed, and covered a whole 2 and a half hours of Brian mouse-hunting, but it is no more. As I was backing up the postContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Tom Boy & Baby Hot Dogs with Pa’s Hot Dog Relish
Wiener Wednesday: Chihuahua
Hola! Welcome to Wiener Wednesdays, my darlings! I’ve had guests for the past 2 weekends so I really haven’t had time to cook (faux McRib notwithstanding). I haven’t had time to grocery shop, either. So for this week’s Wiener Wednesday I just really pulled one out of my ass with what I had in myContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Chihuahua
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Super Tuber
Welcome to Wiener Wednesdays, kiddies! I’m so sorry that it’s been a couple weeks without a wiener-related post, but I’ve been doing that whole synergy thing with the Cock-a-Doodle and the Beef Tongue! But whatever. Today is a true WIENER WEDNESDAY! Now, I know that Dinner is Served is all about the retro recipes, butContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Super Tuber
Wiener Wednesday: Tessie O’Shea’s Frankfurter Chutney Salad
Finally! A salad that incorporates Hot Dogs. This is exactly what Wiener Wednesday was missing. This recipe was sent to me from UK–suggested by Jenny of Silver Screen Suppers and Vincentennial Cooking (go visit her blogs because they are fabulous and historical. Plus, don’t you want to make Alfred Hitchcock’s Quiche Lorraine or Marilyn Monroe’sContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Tessie O’Shea’s Frankfurter Chutney Salad
Wiener Wednesday: Bacon Big Boys
Ah, another Cooking for Two that I cooked for one! Gentle readers, I present to you Bacon Big Boys! I had been eyeing this recipe for a while 1. because of the name (I ♥ Bacon!) and 2. because of the photo. Oh my, that is a big boy! So big that one was more thanContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Bacon Big Boys
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Seattle Hot Pocket
So since I now live such a wiener-centric life I was doing some light reading on the other types of hot dogs–specifically regional dogs. We all know about the Chicago Dog, but did you know that there is a Seattle Dog? Yep. it’s your standard dog topped with sauerkraut, sauteed onion, brown mustard, and creamContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Seattle Hot Pocket
Frank Wrap-Ups & Nutty Pups
This is about the night I ate a hot dog topped with crunchy peanut butter. Back in May I was enjoying some Beams and Bohs at Ottobar with my buddy Rar Kelly, the resident DJ at F#@K the RENT, one of Baltimore’s best dance parties (Listen to some Rar Kelly real talk here. Yay for shameless friendContinue reading Frank Wrap-Ups & Nutty Pups
Wiener Wednesday: Frank-Reuben Sandwich
Just another Wiener Wednesday. This recipe is from Better Homes & Gardens Jiffy Cooking (1967). It’s on the page opposite Chili-Cheese Franks and is listed as a “Hearty Sandwich.” And may I just note that on the first page of “Hearty Sandwiches” there is a recipe for Tuna Tugs. TUNA TUGS. The more I delve into the BH&GContinue reading Wiener Wednesday: Frank-Reuben Sandwich
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Frank Triangles
This week’s selection is Frank Triangles. I am seriously in love with the names of these recipes from the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook collection. Frank Triangles sounds like a mafia goon: That Frankie Triangles is a rat, boss. Let’s bury him in the Meadowlands next to Hoffa! Frank Triangles comes to us from theContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Frank Triangles
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Chili-Cheese Franks
For this week’s cylindrical-shaped dish, I consulted Jiffy Cooking (1967), another gem from my Better Homes & Gardens cookbook collection and selected Chili-Cheese Franks under the chapter “Hearty Sandwiches.” Now, you may think, hey, you just made a chili dog. And that’s true. I did. But this has cheese and beans (that Coney sauce was onlyContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Chili-Cheese Franks
WIENER WEDNESDAY: OctoDog
Or Hot Doctopus. Which ever floats your boat. Now, this is not a retro recipe. It isn’t a recipe at all. This was just me with 2 leftover turkey dogs, which I didn’t want to eat. So I did the next best thing and played with my food. Somewhere on the interwebz I saw aContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: OctoDog
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Coney Islands
What says “hot dog” more than Coney Island (and also, what says “eating so much that you vomit” more than Coney Island)? Although I had no designs on eating so many hot dogs that I’d puke, this chili-dog dish fit the bill for a Wiener Wednesday. Actually, this wasn’t just a dish, it was aContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Coney Islands
WIENER WEDNESDAY: Wiener Bean Pot
I want to institute “Wiener Wednesdays” here at Dinner is Served 1972. It’s just an idea, but I don’t think it’s an entirely horrible one. Those BH&G cookbook people really loved themselves some wieners and I know that there are some real hot dog doozies out there on the interwebz and in some of yourContinue reading WIENER WEDNESDAY: Wiener Bean Pot
Saucy Franks
After the Circle Pups I had some hot dogs left over so I turned to the Better Homes & Gardens Casserole Cook Book (1967) to test out another frankfurter spectacular. Since I am decidedly indecisive, I let Cleve make the decision. But first I gave him some recipes from which to choose. They were: Broiler Bean-erContinue reading Saucy Franks
