Default Mother's Day Bazillion Hotdog Cook pt. 5

Campdude and I have been cooking chitloads of hotdogs for a Mother's Day even for 5 years. It's always fun to hang out/catch up with Marty and feed tons of folks. My lovely wife and kids help out (one was out with a cold this year, so he got to wash everything at home after the event) and a couple friends stopped by to help. We had a great time and managed to feast on some home made sausage as well as beef cheek tacos (just started making corn tortillas - do that!).

This year we cooked close to 1300 hotdogs. In the past we've been using a WSM, BW Chubby, and a Jumbo Old Smokey. Last year we brought a Ranch Kettle to replace the Old Smokey and this year we just went with the RK and a 26" Weber. Another thing we did different this year was simmer/boil the hotdogs first then just ran 'em across the grill for a few minutes to finish. This seems to have led to a better result and we were definitely able to be more in tune with the ebbs and flows of the crowd.

(I think I got grease or steam or something on my lens...)

The grills



campdude getting it done



turning away from the farking blast furnace for a bit - Ranch Kettles get farking hot!



serving - can't ever really get pix of the crowd 'cause when it's on we gotta be cranking




I don't know who made these cookies or why




Threads from years past - I don't think I did one for year 3. Lots of broken pix links but some pix still show up:

Always a fun day hanging out with you, Greg. I got a few pics. Wish I had taken more, but manning the RK was full time. Those sausages and tacos were amazing.
Waiting for the wieners.


Simmering first was a big help.


Greg's lovely wife and older son serving dogs.


A better pic of the cookies. Any guesses as to what they were supposed to be?


The steam and grease was on my glasses not my phone. To me, the whole day looked like your pics!

They look much more appealing with icing. They appear to be shaped like some sort of medical breathing device. Am I correct?

1300 dogs! Wow... that would take some time. I bet it’s so much fun though.

Are those cookies supposed to be lollipop cookies or some kind?

Greg, that's great! Both the beef cheeks and your son's interest in chickens. Hope you get a few hens! Thanks...
