In the spirit of hotdog month, I’d like to let you know about the wieners of my youth; the wieners that still have my heart. I’m of course talking about Yocco’s “The Hot Dog King.” This is a regional Lehigh Valley chain, which may be why you’ve never heard of it before. My favorite part about it is that they serve Mrs. T’s pierogies, deep fried to sizzling-golden-brown-crunchy-on-the-outside-soft-and-fluffy-on-the-inside perfection.
Of course I adore their dogs as well; they serve them with “special sauce,” which is essentially a poor man’s chili, mustard and onions; pure heaven. That’s the standard, but of course they have other options for y’all fussy budgets. You can also pick up a “doggie bag” that has 12 buns, uncooked franks, some “special sauce,’ mustard and onions. Whenever we go up to Live-Free-Or-Die New Hampshire to visit my brother, we have to bring him a doggie bag (amongst other regional favorites). I’m drooling over the thought of Yocco’s good thing I’ll be up in Allentown on Sunday to get me some….
