I just got an email from Hammer. Good basic question…
Who serves what kind of hot dog?
All beef
Polish
Brats
Or just plain ol’ hot dogs?
And why?
OK Slingers, let us know what you’re selling on your cart and why you chose those items.

Glad to hear of your success Dennis! Keep up the good work!
We do sell dogs, sausages etc but we also do Cajun sausage and onions cooked in an iron skillet on our grill, the smell draws them in along with our fantabulous grilled onions. We do red beans and rice, white beans, pulled pork, pasta, we have even cooked scrambled eggs in one of our 1/4 size pans at an early morning auction along with sausage sliders. We serve as much and in many cases more food off our little cart as some of the people around here with their 30K dollar custom made trailers. Slingers do not let the size of some of these fellow vendors intimidate you, they have awesome looking equipment but they only serve one or three items, whip in to an event or whatever and setup like you own the place because at the end of the day you probably will. We also do sweet tea and lemonade on our normal not catering days. Branch out and explore those options.

Quote of the day Jerry, awesome!
It’s true. You can serve a heck of a lot of food from a cart.

I have all kinds of treats to put on them, like barbecue onions, chopped vidalias, 3 flavors of mustard, kraut, chili, and nacho cheese along with the usuals.

On my cart I have premium dogs called a philly and a Rueben quarter pound dog with philly meat peppers onions cheese, corn beef sauerkraut. I also sell homemade beef bbq made in slow cooker. My state doesnt allow chili with meat so i have a hot dog sauce but u can add crumble bacon add shredded cheese and i call it ATW dog (all the way).
Yum!
Hebrew National makes a tasty hot dog, but I haven’t been able to find them in a 5-1 or 1/4 lb. wholesale in StLouis area? Anyone know of any distributors in that market?
Call Hebrew National and ask for sales. Tell them you run a hot dog cart. They will tell you where their distributors are.
A farmers market asked me if we can sream corn is,that,allowed ?
It depends on your local health codes. I would just go ahead and do it. It’s a farmer’s market after all. If the inspector stops by and says you can’t do it, then you’ll have to stop. But I doubt that will happen.
I serve a Chicago style with potato bun fresh poppyseed we put on buns with light brushing of pure butter. We use Roma tomato, with Vienna sport peppers and neon green relish.
We serve Johnsonville All Beef hot link that has jalapeño and red peppers, bacon, cheese sauce, brown mustard.
We also have my New York Red Onion Sauce with Kraut.
Cut those hot links and we put them in Bushes Southern style bbq Grilling Beans, 4oz cup 2.00. Sodas and chips I hated to do it (not) but I think I put two other carts close by looking for other locations. We serve, in this neck o the woods, “Not Your Average Dawgs”!

Greetings from Mississippi, my first year sling’n and my menu has two sizes of dogs. The Jumbo Dog is prime beef 4 to 1 and the Regular Dog is 6 to 1. I use the 6 to 1 to get a higher price for the bigger Dog. The menu also sports a Taco Dog, Junkyard Dog, Chili Cheese Dog Smoked Sausage Dog, Nachos & Cheese and Frito Pie. My Combo consists of a Dog, Chips, Soda Famous Amos Cookies and a candy Ment. It works for me.
Sounds good Gary. Sell ’em all!

Coney dogs are our bread and butter (pardon the pun) but we also sell nachos with coney sauce as the meat and call that dish “Nachoneys”. We have loaded fries, MASSIVE Kirkland hot dogs and regular Kirkland dogs- very tasty, remind me of Nathan’s but more flavorful. The loaded fries are a big hit, almost as big as our coneys. And we have a to. Of condiments and a heated cheese dispenser. This thing is so cool! It’s very efficient and we let people pump their own cheese and people love that. We say “load up as much as you want!”
“As much as I want?” They say.
We’ve run out of fries but because the cheese pump is so efficient we have never run out of cheese.
Our winter menu will feature tomato and chicken noodle soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.
