American food
-
I used to drive to the local Home Depot just to get the hotdogs they sold out front, then I learned they were so good because they were boiled and I just started doing it at home.
Anyway, my point is, boiled hot dogs are the best hot dogs!
I worked one of those dirty-water hot dog carts back in the day. Those things just sat in that water all day, sometimes 2 or 3. That’s where all the flavor is.

Is that powdered sugar on the fries?
Kosher salt

Who the heck puts hot dogs for the hamburger patty tho
People that have buns to use, hotdogs in the freezer and zero money.

Five guy style twice fried French fries. Hamburger bun grilled cheese with processed cheese food slices, hot dogs from the air fryer. Fry sauce made from mayonnaise, ketchup and malt vinegar.
Ask your doctor if American food is right for you.
Cost per person: $2.40.
Five guy style twice fried French fries.
Wait, are typical fries in the US only fried once?!

As an American I have never in my life seen anything like this.
It looks disgusting.

Is it a grilled cheese glizzy, or a glizzy melt?

… I have, this stuff isn’t uncommon

They’re not grilled cheese if there’s a hot dog in it.
njm1314@lemmy.world Did you want to see the phrase “hotdog melt” today? Because I didn’t. But you had to be a pedant about things.

As a North Carolinian, and that’s as far as I go for the sake of anonymity,… this is mid-tier, as a southerner.
Two upside-down hamburger-buns, two fried hotdogs, two slices of cheese and fries, the “default” of sides. This entire “meal” is roughly $5 of food for $2 of sustenance and I think you deserve better for yourself.
American food? This is on the sloppier side of “American Food”, there’s more bread and starch on the plate than turnip greens, BBQ or at least some fried chicken, god forbid some stewed carrots or sweet potatoes or something.
ALL THAT ASIDE
Homie toasted the buns upside down for extra crispness, and I bet being soft on the inside makes the chew interesting, and the fries aren’t exactly a low quality. The execution is top-tier, but I mean, come on.

Those are two different preparations. We’d call them homefries, or potato-wedges.

The fries look insanely good. The hot dogs with the hamburger bun is an interesting choice. I’ve never seen anyone do that before. Grilled cheese is usually just normal bread, not hamburger buns. Grilled cheeses normally don’t have anything thicker than a slice or two of turkey or ham. Great attempt imo.

This isn’t meant to represent any particular American dish. It’s just a vibe of things American. I can’t think of another country that could even offer something like this.
Literally $2.40 of food.
I’m in Lesser Carolina. Just 40 minutes south of Charlotte. Maybe you would prefer Carolina Bird Dogs?

I’m thinking grilled cheese glizzy

It’s not a particular dish but a general American vibe. And as an American living in The South And having traveled around the world I can tell you this is the only place something like it could exist. Most countries don’t even offer the ingredients necessary to make it.

They start with raw potatoes and cook them once. Let cool. Cook again before serving.
A lot of fast food fries are cooked twice but are very different. They start with a potato stick, coat it in crispy making stuff, fry it, flash freeze it and then ship it to the restaurants for cooking again.
But Give Guys doesn’t want a thin crispy fry. They want a fat fry.

If it was common I would have used its name. This has the vibe of American food. Ingredients that aren’t available in the rest of the world combined together to form something that when you see it makes you know it only can exist in America.

This is like someone in their 30s doing a YouTube about “having McDonald’s for the first time in my life”

My only real question, is how is the cheese with the dogs? I usually go cheddar, I feel processed would be a bit tangy for dogs.
