Hey Jersey! The Best Hot Dogs For Your 4th of July BBQ
We are just days away from celebrating America's 249th birthday as we celebrate July 4th, our Independence Day. The day is marked as a Federal Holiday, and most State and Local Governments honor the day as well. It's a day to celebrate America and is filled with patriotic observations, fireworks, trips to the beach, and, of course, BBQs.

How Many People BBQ on the 4th of July?
The 4th of July holiday is the most popular holiday for grilling. "Around 66.3% of Americans will cook out, barbecue, or host a picnic on the 4th of July, according to Medill Spiegel Research Center, with 56% planning to barbecue or grill."
So, to help with your choices for BBQ, I came across an article that listed the best hot dogs for your party. Everybody loves a good hot dog, and it may be my favorite part of the 4th of July BBQ. The Daily Meal listed their choice for the best weiners, and if you are wondering, all the choices on this list are "all-beef," franks.
