I am an American and I Eat Hot Dogs

2 x dogs with special sauce, mustard, onions and relish

Playoff Football! Yes, sporting events in Taaffe Hall are an excuse to relish in the culinary excesses of American culture. In total pregame mode, my roommates watched 7 hours of Buffy the Vampire Slayer while scarfing down bags of Doritos and beer. I thought they might be burnt out by game time, but they rallied around the stove and Dan cooked up some Hebrew Nationals, whilst everyone else chipped in prepping condiments. I improvised a barbecue sauce that was pretty heavy on the smoky flavor, but thinned out nicely when complimented with some diced onions, relish, and a stripe of high quality mustard. Dan gets bonus points for toasting the buns. I might have been pushing it by eating two whole dogs. The Hebrew Nats are kinda salty and I may have overloaded the last one on onions and relish, which must be used in moderation. Keep a cool hand when sloshing that stuff on the dog. It’s easy to get carried away. Go Pats!
