The Alamo Dog pics. Once you eat it you'll always remember it!

Foot long 60-40 beef/pork natural casing, my recipe, dog. Smothered in fried onions, hot pepper relish, side of garlic fries. Orders?

I would like that hot dog, but the fries would be more than I could handle. That is, the hot dog would fill me up. 
 
I'd love the fries, of course, but together -- too much.

Michael, that is too much for almost anyone, but we are known for really big portions [ some Irish hangup of mine], more than a few people say good Lord or some such, when served.

I love your dog to bun ratio.  Why can't others do that? 
 
Could you please tell me about that pepper relish?  Is it anything like a sambal?   Is it Hellish Relish?
 
Am I the only one who when served a hot dog with the toppings on top, pull out the dog moving the toppings to under the dog?  I say this realizing that they're on top for presentation.

I'll take 2 please. and regular fries, not garlic

I hope you are the only one who turns the toppings into underings.

Don't...
Put hot dog toppings between the hot dog and the bun. Always "dress the dog," not the bun.

Marlene, that's chopped cherry pepper relish, I would think you could find it at any supermarket in LA.
Put that on the bottom, kiss your roll goodbye!

Not at all, it's here waiting for you. You got another half hour, after that I'm calling Greymo, she'll come get it!

I thought your earlier version was better:

Chewingthefat:  Looks fabulous.  Did you have someone make the sausage to your specs?  Also, how did you come up with the name?  Is it because, once you try it, you'll always remember The Alamo?    (Great cutline, if I do say so myself!) Inquiring minds want to know. 

Chewingthefat:  I can only assume that's a Virgil's Root Beer (or Real Cola) in the background.  World's best root beer, and the cola rocks!

I honestly forgot I posted that before, in any case with the fried onions and hot pepper relish, it's a completely different taste.

Mt Airy Meat Locker in Mt. Airy Md. makes them exclusively for me, my recipe which is simple, 60% beef-40% pork, jalapeno, fresh garlic, cumin, a little salt.

Root Beer and yes it really is good...The Alamo Dog was named just like you said!

Man! that would be some fine eating.
