What’s the best hot dog you can buy? Food & Wine food stylist Julian Hensarling and hot dog expert Lee Pantazis put some of the biggest brands and grocery store favorites to the ultimate blind taste test. From Nathan’s, Hebrew National, Sabrett, and Oscar Mayer to Costco, Trader Joe’s, Aldi, Walmart, and Whole Foods, they judge each all-beef hot dog on appearance, texture, and flavor—looking for great seasoning, a juicy bite, and that all-important snap.

Along the way, they reveal how to spot a natural casing before you even take a bite, why natural-casing hot dogs have become surprisingly rare, and the surprising alternatives manufacturers use instead. Plus, Julian and TK discover why you shouldn’t count out the store brands as a few unexpected contenders climb surprisingly high in the rankings. After tasting them all straight off the grill, the experts narrow down their favorites before crowning the ultimate #1 hot dog.
