• Charleston Area HDJ Review - Mr. Choo Choo's Big Dogs February 6, 2012
  Location, location, location. The three most important things in business, right? The owners of Mr. Choo Choo's Big Dogs probably thought it was awesome to have a location for his new hot dog cart right beside one of the busiest interstate off-ramps in the state of West Virginia (Leon Sullivan Way) but... OK, first the hot dogs. This won't take lon […]

• Q&A from Readers September 25, 2011
  FreeHollowBooks writes and says "I'm hankerin for a new review......I check everyday. Who has the hottest sauce in WV btw?" Well, FreeHollow, I just posted a new review. And there is no question that Yann's Hot Dogs in Fairmont has the hottest sauce in the state. It is insanely hot. So hot that it has apparently killed the brain cells of […]

• Charleston Area HDJ Review - Riverside Cafe, Port Amherst September 25, 2011
  Near the mouth of Campbells Creek is one of the most unique little communities in the state. Port Amherst is private property that is home to several business that support the coal and river transportation industries. Kind of a early twentieth century business park, some of the buildings in the park look more like stately residences than industrial offices a […]

• Tornado HDJ Review - Big Bend Golf Course August 18, 2011
  I used to play a lot of golf. In addition to the joy of pursuing an ever higher level of proficiency chasing a little white ball around a glorified cow pasture, playing a lot of golf also allowed me to dine at great Hot Dog Joints in disparate places. It seems that every golf course in these parts has really good hot dogs, or perhaps they just seem really go […]

• M&M Dairy Belle Celebrates 60 Years August 10, 2011
  Due to the incessant whining passionate advocacy of Huntington Weenie Wonk Chris James, we allowed one - and only one - HDJ from outside the confines of our state borders to be included on our illustrious Five Weenie HDJ list. Deciding that M&M Dairy Belle can't help the fact that they sit on the wrong bank of the Ohio River (in Chesapeake) and coup […]

• According to Google... July 28, 2011
  And to the Charleston Gazette, West Virginians search for the term "hot dog" on Google more than residents of any other state, according to Jenna Wandres of Google. We're not surprised. And I'd bet if you could somehow track all those expatriate West Virginians (for those of you in Fairmont, that means they were from West Virginia and now […]

• Catching up from the lazy days of Summer July 26, 2011
  I know this is not a good excuse for low output during National Hot Dog Month, but with the heat we've been experiencing this month I just haven't been in much of a hot dog mood; writing about them, that is. I'm always in the mood to eat them. A recent trip to Baltimore brought me an opportunity to see how the northern Chesapeake Bay eats thei […]

• Test Results - Fairmont meets Marmet July 5, 2011
  As I wrote earlier today, a Fourth of July cookout gave me the opportunity to test out my theory that if you add a cool, creamy coleslaw to the top of a spicy Fairmont style hot dog it would make a great West Virginia Hot Dog. Here is my report on the test:  As much grief as I like to give Fairmont people for their stubborn resistance to slaw on hot dogs, I […]
