In Search of the Best Hot Dog

In the spirit of July 4th weekend, I am beginning my quest to find the best hot dog in Monmouth County/The Jersey Shore. In my eyes, there is nothing more quintessential summer than biting into a juicy dog after a long day at the beach or on the boardwalk. I look to you, my friends, to offer your thoughts on the topic. Are you wacky for Windmill? Mad for Max’s? Leave your votes in the comments section or shoot me an email at EatWithYourMonmouth@gmail.com.

(For more hot dog fun, Bon Appétit did an awesome feature called “AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DOGS.” Check it out here: http://www.bonappetit.com/magazine/2009/07/international_hot_dogs)
