Are you insane? This is the greatest thing I have seen all week.
Yes. I need to try one of these, wherever it may be.
Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs in Downtown Disney district, CA. But I’m sure that’s not the only place.
Thanks! I also happily found a place currently more local to me in Cleveland. Korean pickle corn dogs https://www.instagram.com/thatswhatsheeats/p/Cqv1WFUpmeA/?img_index=1
Have a polish boy for me!!! I miss them dearly along with sauerkraut balls
haha…for sure! it’s been a number of years since I had a po’ boy since i got food poisoning last time I ate one from a vendor outside the Browns stadium lol. Sauerkraut balls are still a must several times a year.
It probably was something you ate/drank in the Muni lot or from the Browns game play that day. But hey we got a parade from it!
Haha…it probably well could have been their play as I think it was their first year back. also, how dare you question the grilled parking lot shrimp and brats? lol
I hate corn dogs, but even I kinda want to try one of those.
It seems like one of those really messed up food choices that end up being surprisingly good, like putting cucumbers in cheese sandwiches.
I bet it’s even better dipped in good mayonnaise.
Everything is better dipped in mayonnaise
Hmm, at first I was all in for this but then I thought of the possibilities:
- The sausage is cold
- The pickle is hot
I really don’t want either so this is a hard pass
Don’t underestimate warm/hot pickles.
The sausage potentially being cold/cool is offputting, but not a total dealbreaker. But heated pickles are yummy. Think about them fried, or on burgers. The taste of them becomes more complex and interesting. I can see this being a damn nice combination of flavors, even if the interior isn’t as consistent as could be ideal.
And there’s no guarantee it won’t cook evenly.
The problem with hot pickles is the same as with tomatoes. It’s tasty, but the liquid just burns your mouth.
And since the sausage is inside the pickle, it takes considerable amount of heating the pickle to get the sausage warm/hot
Well, I guess if you go at it immediately, that would be a problem.
I just figured out would be like most “portable” food where it gets cooked in batches and kept warm. This would let carryover cooking bring the inner parts up to the desired temp range, while the more exterior parts would be cooling to a comfortable range by the process.
It’s kinda like with some fast food; having it sit is calculated into the end product so that it doesn’t dry out or over cook in the expected serve time. With the sausages being precooked, it’s a matter of getting them to a pleasing range rather than reaching a specific safe temp like it would be for other sausages.
But, yeah, I see what you mean. If it’s fried on demand, the pickle juices would be brutal.
Yeah that would make sense. I have only experience with fast food that’s cooked on demand really (apart from CrpDonalds I guess, depending on your luck)
Gotta let it rest first.
Deep fried pickles is a common pub food in my area
Yeah I was thinking that hot pickles were weird but then I remembered deep fried pickles exist and are delicious, so therefore this pickle-corndog must be outstanding
Damn, what are they like?
Delicious
So good. Better in ranch and with a side of texas cheese fries (which are better than regular cheese fries), also with ranch.
Followed by pizza, which you also have with ranch.
Mmmmmmmmmm, I might genuinely fly to the US just for this. I’m over here eating sauerkraut
Fried pickles are the tits
Zucchini would be a great replacement.
Yeah that could work, though I prefer zucchini fried or grilled
For me, it’s a no on proportion of pickle to the rest…too much pickle
It’s like you never tried fried cucumbers. On a serious note, pickle is there for taste, not for temperature, and it’s not like a pickle is bad if it’s in something hot
I haven’t tried fried cucumbers, true.
I understand that the pickle is not there for temperature, it’s kind of obvious. But to cook this food, you’ll first transfer heat from the frying oil into the corn thing, then into the cucumber, and finally into cooking the sausage. The cucumber will be hot before the sausage warms up.
The cucumber also likely has considerable amount of thermal mass due to being some high 90% of water, and the corn thing probably works as insulation to keep the heat from escaping.
It really looks like something that would burn your mouth in an instant
I would expect that while cooking this will happen as you describe, yet after the cooking is done core is going to be the last to stay warm. Also, I expect that’s not a whole pickle, but rather pickle rings that let the heat to transfer freely from surface to sausage.
Superb
Brilliant. Someone needs to shop Cousin It from Addam’s Family onto the right side to make this a masterpiece.
The TV show was great but the video game was Low-Key amazing as well.
I’m not going to tell you these pickle corn dogs will increase in value, or even hold their current value. The truth is, you bought 'em because you like 'em. They have value to you. That’s what matters.
I honestly can’t decide without having one. How was it, op?
I think this belongs everywhere
eat the crust and throw the rest on the ground for feral Willem Dafoe or seagulls
Thank you for the mental image of the two most likely creature types to find it 😂
I’d eat it, but why is the hotdog sticking further out than the pickle?
It was scared and pulled in a little while the person was biting. Then it popped back out.
The thought of a hotdog smart enough to be scared is unsettling.
Well, it is made from stuff (mostly) that was smart enough to be scared
Hot dog wants to expand when heated, but is contained within the pickle/batter shell. When cut open, hot dog has some free space to expand into.
That’s better than it being scared lol
No
It’s playing “just the tip“
These are awesome. They belong in my stomach.

I want that so bad
What I want to do is take all the people in the comments who say they want this and ones who are disgusted by this - and then put them on a reality tv dating show. I want to see them fall in love, then we bring out the pickle dogs. It would be beautiful.
I already live like this, my girlfriend hates pickles and corn dogs but she knows I would devour this
Red flag 🚩 you deserve better. Leave her. Jk
The answer is yes.
Seconded
Replace the hot dog with a brat, or like, rolled up corned beef and I’m ALL IN.
You should try the German dish Rouladen, if you haven’t already. It’s thin slices of beef, pickles, and mustard rolled up. It’s mouth-watering, absolutely delicious.
This is the worst thing I’ve seen since Ohio-valley style pizza
For the curious but lazy Lemming:
Ohio Valley–style pizza is a pizza made with cold toppings sprinkled over a square crust that has been covered with a sweet tomato sauce. It originated in Steubenville, Ohio and is commonly served in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, mostly in and near the Ohio Valley region of those states.
Sounds like the pizza Lunchable if adults were pretending it was food.
Huh? Is there cheese? Is the sauce warm or cold?
Apparently I’m from the civilized part of the state because I’ve never heard of this abomination.
From what I understand, the crust and sauce are hot and cold cheese is sprinkled on, which then gets, like, lukewarm
NGL I’m a born and raised Ohioian and I didn’t learn about this monstrosity until last year. Also, the Ohio-valley refers to the Ohio River valley, so i blame West Virginia
I live in West Virginia and have lived right on the Ohio River. I have never seen or heard of this disgusting shit. Don’t blame us.
😂😂😂 ok ok you got me, the fault entirely lies in Steubenville lol
Huh, thanks. I’ll blame them too then lol
Why would they do that tho…? I feel sad now.
Ohio-valley style pizza
Had to look that up. Wow, that’s just sad.

My school pizza was a rectangular brick of grease and tiny cubes of bright red mystery meat, but the goddamn cheese was melted. FFS.
Oh no, now I know about Ohio-valley style pizza!
Ive had one and it was quite tasty. Yours looks even better than the one i had. What’s the sprinkle stuff on the outside?
It looks like bread crumbs of some kind, not quite thin enough to be Panko style though.
Panko is coarser than just breadcrumbs AFAIK
