00:00I can't wait to taste the meat.
00:02Exactly!
00:03That's what Raw Dog King is all about!
00:05Take me out for some hot dogs!
00:09Alright!
00:10You know, I'm back in South Florida.
00:12Came down for spring training, of course, this year.
00:14And you know, I see this guy.
00:17He's got a cart set up here.
00:19He calls himself Rochester Hots.
00:21And you know what they have famous in Rochester?
00:24Zwiegels Hot Dogs.
00:26Now, they are a unique hot dog.
00:29They have the Red Hot and the White Hot.
00:31And well, I'm going to try one of each as I go
00:33Raw Dog in West Palm Beach here at Rochester Hots
00:37to see if these hot dogs are worthy of the tank.
00:40Let's find out.
00:42♪♪♪♪
00:58$1,880.
01:00Yeah, these pop when you cook them.
01:03I'm from Rochester, New York.
01:05And I moved down in 1988.
01:07Got the Reds.
01:09Nice.
01:10Zwiegels. Is that how to pronounce it?
01:12Zwiegels.
01:13Zwiegels.
01:14Zwiegels Hot Dogs.
01:15I started charging for the extras.
01:18Ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise are free
01:20after that $0.50 additional.
01:22Especially with the land care.
01:24What do you want? Everything! Everything!
01:26They don't pay anything.
01:28Exactly. Exactly.
01:30You see, that's how you really know what a hot dog tastes like.
01:32That's why I do them.
01:33That's why it's called Raw Dog.
01:34As I said, they're a little unique.
01:36Look, they pop when they're done.
01:38And, uh, great grill marks.
01:41They're a fatter dog, a jumbo dog.
01:44Kind of more like a sausage than a hot dog.
01:46There's the red hot and the white hot.
01:49And they've been, Zwiegels' family
01:51have been around the business forever.
01:53Tom's been here for 12 years.
01:55A western New York transplant down here in Florida.
01:59Well, let's see how this hot dog tastes.
02:09It's hard.
02:11It snaps.
02:17This hot dog
02:19is a home run.
02:21Raise the apple.
02:25And now here's the white.
02:32I can just take it.
02:33Here we go.
02:34And here's the white hot dog.
02:36And here's the white hot dog.
02:37Of course, you've got the Zwiegels.
02:51Excellent snap.
02:53More like a sausage than a traditional hot dog.
02:58I'm going to give the white hot,
03:00and it's cooked terrifically too,
03:02I'm going to give the white hot a triple.
03:06This place is terrific.
03:08All right, Tom is a terrific guy.
03:10You know, he's been making people happy
03:12down here in West Palm Beach.
03:15You know, a lot of things are changing over the years.
03:17It looks like they're going to be building up more over here.
03:19But he's just here on the road.
03:21People come in, and they see Zwiegels.
03:23Zwiegels, especially if they're visiting
03:25for much of New York, they stop.
03:27He chats them up a good time for everyone.
03:30And that's what raw dog is all about.
03:32Tom gets it.
03:34He understands fully what a raw dog is all about.
03:37His hot dogs are terrific.
03:39His Zwiegels are terrific.
03:41And if I'm ever in Rochester,
03:43I've got to get to Rochester one of these days.
03:45One of these days I'll get to Rochester.
03:47But, hey, leave a comment down below where I should go.
03:49And I know you Rochester guys have been
03:51recommending a place for me for years.
03:53I've just got to get to Rochester.
03:55You know, I'm very busy.
03:57But tell me where I should go next,
03:59njtank99 at gmail.com,
04:01because you never know on the show.
04:04Home run, which is probably
04:06one of the best courses you can get.
04:08And we've got a raw dog segment.
04:12Take me out for some hot dogs
04:16Get me one that's only plain
04:19No mustard or herb or ketchup
04:23I'll know what the dog is really about
04:26And it's hope that this is a good one
04:30Maybe a home run or a double
04:32But if it sucks, it will be a strike
04:35Got it not worthy of my taste buds
05:00.
