Dodger Dogs | Burgers and Dogs Across America Ep.1

what's good everybody hey welcome to episode number one of burgers and dogs across America I'm going to be your host I'm AB so let's get [Music] it okay folks so listen this show and this series is all about listen we going to go to all the different states you know what I mean sometime I'm be going physical sometime I'll be doing them just in my backyard or in the kitchen right we're going to be doing burgers and dogs and listen I'm going to keep real simple I'm going to start off with California and guess what folks we starting off with the Dodger Dog did you guys know that they don't even sell the Dodger Dog at the stadium no more listen to this this is why they stopped in 2021 the Dodgers announced that they were no longer sourcing the dogs from Farmer John which had the contract for like 50 years now Farmer John didn't even uh share the recipe with their successor so Papa cantinella set out to recreate them themselves and these are the dogs that you see in the video today and the price for the Dodger Dog was $6.50 a dog okay folks so look after looking at that you see you know like it's not a whole lot of ingredients and to be honest with you this is probably like how most people make theirs you know at home already right so you saw we had mayonnaise ketchup mustard you know what I mean only thing we going to do is we going to make it the traditional way and I told you what makes it traditional is look these are 12 in folks [Music] okay y'all so look this how we going to do this right so instead of me using the rollers like you guys can probably see right now obviously I'm using the grill I'm going go ahead and just Grill these this way I'm going to go ahead and put these over here on this side for right now I don't want them to roll I'm going to go ahead and turn them on my own right so we'll just put them like that and we'll just get these cooked and then one thing about this series I'm going to make them my way folks that's how we going to do that so I'll start with just those three then I can take this here I can turn this around you know just get it a little bit closer if I want to put this over there cuz listen we want to get a little heat on there but I don't want to like beat them all up them going to be the ones I like the crispy ones okay so if you guys come on over here and look take a look what I'm doing I just take them since I'm using my grill right I just take them and roll them like this I'mma physically roll them this one that was on the outside it's just now starting to get some heat this one will almost be done in just one second okay folks I want you come in here take a look at this right here look I'm moving these around like this these is cool but I got a way that I like to do them where they level up for myself right and that's when I put them splits I mean those little slits in there or some of you guys will spir them all the way around but right now I'm just going to take it take this one and put it right here and you know that's how the Dodger dolls come let me go ahead and get some more buns let me move these cuz I don't want to overcook these no more even though if it was for me by myself I would [Music] okay so these right here is what I like to do when I say I like to do mine just a little different right now you saw me put just a little bit of char on there right but what you want to do is you want to go ahead this now this part is really up to you right so I'm really being Ginger about you know and being light cuz if you cut them too deep they going to tear up you know what I mean when you cook them they'll try to turn you know and and and and and bend on you and all of that then when you go to take them off it'll be hard to get them off right but the purpose of this is we just want to get a little Char on each end on that end and that that give it a little bit more crispiness and it allows that flavor for them charcoals to get down in that meat all right so you just see me cut these right they not too deep right so this is what I do I'mma start with them down right there right you see them we just put them down anywhere whatever you think is down and because I'm cooking over these coals trust me this is hot folks [Music] okay so look I'm going to give a little Pro tip if you guys are paying attention right here see how dark that is right here when I turn this over here see it's dark under there like that and not so much on the other side so if I want to slow that down or make sure I get that I bring that down get this away from the heat right so I'm going to move this over look at it ah yeah it's starting to turn for me there we go let me see turn this over I can see on this side look see over there it's not so I put it back over here like that and then I bring it down right and these right here get me that color that I'm looking for so you see that right there let me bring that around so y'all can see it all right I'll just take it bring it like that and fix his bed close him up and look at that okay folks so look I want you guys to come down here and take a look at this right so listen I got three dogs right here I'm going to choose one of these three to represent the Dodger Dog right now keep in mind the Dodger Dogs don't have this on there right there they don't have that flavor cuz they be on rollers right so over here if you look now this is what I'm going to do my level up my version of a Dodger Dog now I want you guys to tell me if this was number one number two and number three which one of these do you think that I'm going to use to make my dog all right so obviously I took the one in the middle that's going to be my Dodger Dog right but when you take a look over here remember this was one two and three I'm going to pick this one right here cuz I know that's the one that got all the flavor so you guys can see it right there look at that right there yep so this is going to be the one that I'mma do right and so what makes it a Dodger do is the fact that it's 12 in long and it hang out like it do right you ain't got them hanging out like that you ain't got nothing folks making it a doad do is real simple folks really ketchup mustard mayo if you guys like it you got to have onions and you can have uh relish right that's sweet relish [Music] [Music] okay folks look you guys got a chance to see me putting these
