Hot dog record-breaker

People always were aimed to do something better, to be the best. And that aim can be anywhere, as well as in the food industry. You have already heard about eating contest – who would eat faster? Who would eat more than others? So what’s the deal about hot dogs and it’s records in the history?

1 – The longest hot dog.

According to the Guines Records, The longest hot dog measured 203.80 m (668 ft 7.62 in) and was made by Novex S.A. Paraguay at the Expoferia 2011. The meat, produced by Ochsi, weighed 120 kg (264 lb 8.87 oz). The bun consisted of 100 kg (220 lb 7.39 oz) of flour, 25 litres (5.5 UK gal; 6.6 US gal) of water, 6 kg (13 lb 3.64 oz) yeast, 6 kg (13 lb 3.64 oz) sugar, 5 kg (11 lb 0.36 oz) butter, 2 kg (4 lb 6.54 oz) powdered milk, 2 kg (4 lb 6.54 oz) salt and 1 litre (0.22 UK gal; 0.26 US gal) malt extract. The hot dog and bun were entirely edible. After that, the hot dog was cut into 2000 portions and given to the public. Free 2000 hot dogs, awesome! 

2 – The most expensive hot dog.

New York City rooftop lounge 230 FIFTH ups the stakes, creating a hot dog priced at $2,300. To start, the hot dog meat is made of marbled Wagyu beef, dry-aged for 60 days and enriched with black truffle. A dry-aged seven rib roast of this type goes for $1,225 a pop. The hot dog meat sits between a toasted brioche bun, brushed with white truffle butter and slathered with organic, saffron-infused W Ketchup that goes for $9 a bottle and $35 mustard imported from France.

The hot dog is then topped with caramelized onions that have been cooked in Dom Perignon Champagne and $389 100-year-old balsamic vinegar. The next topping, the homemade sauerkraut, is braised with champagne worth several hundred dollars and mixed with the finest caviar legally available in the U.S. This elaborate hot dog is finally topped off with relish made from $10 pickles and a shimmering gold leaf. You must be really into that to spend 2300 for a hot dog.

3 - Most hot dogs made in one minute

And that is 9 and was achieved by Steve Guttenberg (United States), on the set of the New Paul O'Grady Show, London, United Kingdom, on 12 November 2008, in celebration of Guinness World Records Day 2008.

So, if making a lot of hot dogs in a minute can be considered as a record, there are a lot of places to make your own record then.
