Don’t let your dogs get cold!

Cold weather is coming. Make sure your hot dog cart is ready for it!

Hot food sells pretty well in the spring and fall. It slows down a bit in the “dog days” of August.

But when winter sets in hot dogs sell like crazy. There’s nothing like hot food on a cold day!

One half of the secret to selling hot dogs in the winter time is to keep your body warm. Especially your feet.

Be sure to dress for the weather in removable layers and get the best boots you can afford.

The other half of the secret is making sure your hot dog cart is prepped to perform at it’s best when the temperature dips.

Here are two articles that I always re-publish this time of year. Be sure to read both of them. Your cart (and your wallet) will thank you.
