This story was updated on July 19, 2023.
Hot diggity dog, it’s summertime, and that calls for a frank. Check out some of the places in the Dallas area that don’t serve a wimpy weenie.
It’s an especially perfect day to celebrate, too: July 19, 2023, is National Hot Dog Day.
Cold Beer Company
The ‘dogs come plain Jane or dressed up; pick what you like. Pictured here is Cold Beer Company‘s Expo Dog: a hot dog topped with bacon, mac and cheese, and sport peppers. Ask about the monthly hot dog if you’re adventurous. All the dogs are made by nearby butcher Rudolph’s Market & Sausage Factory. 3600 Main St., Dallas.
Angry Dog
The menu at Angry Dog in Deep Ellum includes burgers, sandwiches, wings and other bar food. But it gets its name from the Angry Dog hot dog, an all-beef frank with mustard, chili, onions and cheddar cheese. Two hands required. 2726 Commerce St., Dallas.
Austin’s Underdawgs
Austin’s Underdawgs is a Fort Worth-based food truck that caters for events, so they aren’t exactly selling hot dogs every day. But if you catch the truck, you might want to check out the jalapeño straw dog. It’s a hot dog topped with raspberry chipotle barbecue sauce, smoked bacon bits, fried onions and a whole lot of fried and pickled jalapeños. 2900 Marquita Drive, Fort Worth. austinsunderdawgs.com.
Dog Haus Biergarten
The West Coast-based shop made its debut in Richardson in 2017, and they’re still around to serve more and more hot dogs. One of their menu items is the Sooo Cali: wild arugula, avocado, tomato, crispy onions and spicy basil aioli on a “high-quality, antibiotic, hormone-free beef” sausage. 744 S. Central Expressway, Richardson.
Haystack Burgers and Barley
Yes, you can always get burgers at this local chain that has expanded throughout North Texas. But you can also try the Hay Dawg, a grilled dog on a challah bun topped with chili, cheddar, relish and Haystack Onions. Multiple area locations. haystackburgers.com.
Okaeri Cafe
This cute Japanese cafe in Richardson serves comforting classics like shrimp katsu curry and okonomiyake pancakes, but they also serve a variety of “hottodoggus,” like the a katsu doggu (lightly breaded and fried), a yakisoba doggu, a kimchi doggu, and even an okonomi doggu featuring bonito flakes, nori, furikake flakes, Japanese mayo and ketchup. 312 N. Greenville Ave Suite 100, Richardson. okaericafe.square.site.
Portillo’s
This new-to-Texas Chicago spot is primed to expand rapidly here. And while the company says their Italian beef sandwich is the thing to get, you can’t usually pass up a classic Chicago-style hot dogs. 4560 Destination Drive, The Colony. portillos.com.
Rye
Ever tried an Icelandic hot dog? Creative restaurant Rye on Greenville is the place to do it. This non-traditional dog is a small plate that of Rosewood Ranch wagyu beef with rugbrød and Icelandic sweet mustard, remoulade, onions and fried shallots. 1920 Greenville Ave., Dallas. rye.restaurant.
Shake Shack
Shake Shack serves up burgers and milkshakes, sure, but also classic hot dogs and chicken dogs. Our suggestion is the signature Shack-cago Dog topped with the restaurant’s proprietary relish, plus onion, cucumber, pickle, tomato, sport pepper, celery salt and mustard. Multiple area locations.
Of course, we couldn’t exclude the Texas Rangers’ home turf, Globe Life Park in Arlington, as a primo hot dog spot if you’re willing to venture outside of Dallas. If you’d rather a more gussied hot dog, the ballpark has franks of all kinds. Globe Life Park: 1000 Ballpark Way, Arlington.

New York Giants Fall to Dallas Cowboys, 27-20 on Thanksgiving
The New York Giants’ dreadful 2024 season continued with a 27-20 to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. It was the Giants’ seventh-straight loss this season and their eighth-consecutive defeat at the hands of the Cowboys, dating back to the 2020 season.
The Cowboys benefitted from two Giants turnovers, including a pick-6 by DeMarvion Overshown in the second quarter he returned 23 yards to give the Cowboys a 13-7 lead, the Cowboys at that point never relinquishing the lead.
The other came following a Giants fumble in the second half, which the Cowboys converted into another touchdown to cap a six-play scoring drive.
The game started well, as the Giants held the Cowboys to just a field goal after their first possession. The Giants offense took the field with Drew Lock under center for the injured Tommy DeVito.
Lock was under pressure practically half the game, the Cowboys hitting him 14 times and sacking him six. The Giants also had just as many penalties in this game (13) as they did first downs (17), and their defense once again couldn’t stop the run if they tried, with missed tackles–at least 10 of them in the first half alone–an ongoing problem.
Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle captured his first career 100+ yard rushing game, going for 112 yards and one touchdown against the Giants, who saw three defensive linemen–D.J. Davidson (shoulder), Rakeem Nunez-Roches (stinger) and Dexter Lawrence II (elbow)–leave the game with injuries.
Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush finished 21 of 36 for 195 yards and one touchdown, his leading receiver being tight end Luke Schoonmaker (five catches on six pass targets).
Lock and running back Tyrone Tracy, Jr. scored the Giants’ two touchdowns, TRacy’s coming on a 1-yard run on the Giants’ opening drive to give them their first lead in a game since Week 6, and then Lock scoring a fourth-quarter garbage time touchdown on an 8-yard rush to make it 27-20 with 2:18 left.
The Giants got the rest of their scoring from kicker Graham Gano, who hit field goals of 46 and 47 yards.
Giants receiver Malik Nabers caught 13 pass targets for 69 yards, but he also dropped two balls. Rookie tight end Theo Johnson displayed toughness on a few of his receptions, hauling in five catches for 54 yards.
This is the Giants’ ninth time in the last 11 seasons that they’ve lost at least ten games. This loss eliminated them from playoff contention and currently slots them into the No.1 pick in April’s draft.
The Giants will have 10 days to prepare for their next matchup, a home meeting with the New Orleans Saints. They’re now the only team in the NFL to win a game at home still not this season, and they currently have the league’s longest losing streak.

Sources: Giants’ DeVito expected out vs. Dallas
New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito is expected to be out for Thursday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys because of his forearm injury and Drew Lock is expected to start in his place, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Jordan Raanan.
DeVito is listed as questionable for the Thanksgiving Day game, but a source told ESPN on Wednesday that DeVito was considered a long shot to play.
He did not travel with the team to Dallas on Wednesday as he was undergoing further evaluation, the Giants said. The team, however, said it expected him to travel to Dallas later Wednesday.
DeVito took several big hits in Sunday’s 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was making his first start of the season after the Giants released former starter Daniel Jones late last week.
The Giants turn to Lock after bypassing him following the benching of Jones for DeVito. Lock spent the first 10 weeks as the backup, with DeVito as the third string/emergency quarterback.
Lock has a short week and no real practices to get ready for the matchup of NFC East rivals. He also will be playing behind an offensive line without its starting tackles. Andrew Thomas (foot) is on injured reserve and Jermaine Eluemunor (quad) was ruled out Wednesday.
