The Best Thing I Ever Made - Hot Dogs

I don't often make hot dogs at home, I tend to enjoy mine at the ballpark or at one of the newly popular gourmet hot dog places. One thing I do admit to loving that you don't usually find out in a restaurant is good old Franks and Beans. I made this for myself for my birthday a few years back and you can check it out here.

franks and beans!

I know you can just buy these thrown together in a can, but I love the baked in flavor with the brown sugar. I am finding that most of the 'best things' I ever made are things that are not necessarily fancy, but have great memories attached with them.

What is one of the things you make at home because you can't find it in restaurants?

  2. I remember eating this as a kid. I think it's the only thing my Mom knew how to cook...lol! I never order steak at a restaurant I think steaks cooked at home are way better. I like a lot of things better at home :)

  3. This is great! Not only does it taste great, but the price is right. I make bean soup at home, not like any in the restaurant.

  5. I used to make this all the time when my kids were young. That little bit of extra brown sugar made it taste homemade.

  8. I love Franks and Beans!! I went to the link because I was like "how the hell did she make hot dogs at home!" I would just add hot sauce to this dish. :D

  9. I like making lots of things at home. I'm a vegetarian, and the stuff they have in most restaurants is TERRIBLE. Overcooked, underseasoned vegetables, bland things...or grilled cheese - which is also better at home, hot from the grill pan or broiler!
