And if you are like us, then you too look for the biggest portion of hot dog or burger to devour. Finally, we have found the place offering the largest hotdog ever! You heard us. During our research, we came across a place in Chicago, USA that has the largest commercially available hotdog in the world. Guess what; this place has held the Guinness World Record for the last 11 years. The place is called Gorilla Tango Novelty Meats.
According to the official Guinness World Record website, Gorilla Tango Novelty Meats offers a unique hotdog that weighs 3.18kgs. This hotdog, priced at 40 USD (approx. Rs. 3158), made its position on the list of Guinness World Records on March 21, 2011.
Now, this brings up the question - what goes into making the world's largest hotdog? Let's find out:
According to bighotdog.com, it includes one big hotdog, one big bun, ketchup and mustard sauce. Simple and super delicious, right?
Speaking about the big hotdog, the owner at Gorilla Tango Novelty Meats explained, "What inspired me to make the biggest hotdog was the inherent problem with small hotdogs. I wanted to make a hotdog that pops the grill and doesn't fall around. In order to make that, we made a big hotdog that could be sliced and put in a grill with two flat sides."
