"Of all the wild wieners around America, the Sonoran hot dog just may be the craziest, so dolled up you cannot see it in this photo. It's a beef dog wrapped in bacon and smothered in condiments that vary from four-alarm hot to mayo-cool. The big, soft bun, made in local Mexican bakeries, is essential. The traditional garnish is a roasted guero pepper."

"Tucson is rich with carts that specialize in the 'hot dog estilo Sonora.' Nearly all have a little covered area where you can escape from the blazing sun or frequent, short-lasting deluges."

"My lack of Spanish and the proprietor's lack of English made it impossible to talk at length about the history and cultural significance of the Sonoran hot dog, but he did manage to make it clear to me that this location is where he is every day."
