These are the Top 10 Hot Dogs in Miami or maybe the Best 10 Hot Dogs in Miami. It depends on the word you prefer to use. One of my pet peeves is when someone says something like, Miami has no good insert word here.
It doesn’t have the rich hot dog history of say a Chicago, New York, or Texas but we’re getting there. The never-ending war against the negative nancies is an uphill battle, but all I can try to do is educate those who are willing to listen.

Beast. On your next road trip, may I recommend you visit Clifton, New Jersey. There, you will find Rutt’s Hut, home of the Ripper. A deep fried hotdog. Also, up the road a bit is The Hot Grill, home of the Hot Texas Wiener. The HTW is a north Jersey thing, and there are many restaurants that sell them in the area. Hot Grill is my favorite, but others think differently, which is all good. According to local lore, the HTW was created by Greek immigrants in the 30’s – 40’s, it’s a fried dog with spicy mustard, thin bean less chili sauce, diced raw onions on top. That is called all the way. You’ll eat five. Fries suck, but are made palatable by getting them topped with sauce. The cheeseburger is nothing special, except when you get it all the way. That is some good shit.
If it had pineapple then it’s more than likely going to be Colombian. You may want to try MAO’s on Bird Road, it might be right up your alley plus it’s open late!
Always an enjoyable read. Surprisingly (or maybe not LOL), I have had a lot of these.
Arbetter’s-I don’t care for the hotdog itself. Meat is too mild/bland/soft, tastes like it’s made of turkey.
Burger Fi-Never cared for the burnt. Like ketchup, it’s not right. Browned in butter is awesome, burnt is bad.
Fritas Domino-I know it’s sacrilegious but I’m not a frita fan. Too greasy. You can have too much of a good thing.
Monster-I have not tried, but I don’t like bacon or mozzarella or a toasted bun.
Pepitos-Have not tried but looks amazing (add pineapple and skip the shaker cheese but then it looks like Pincho . . .
Pincho-I love it, but it’s not my favorite
Sweet Dogs-I had big hopes and took my family for my birthday but was disappointed.
Swenson’s-Bun no, cheese sauce no. When “restaurants” do hot dogs, they are often just weird.
The best tasting plain hot dog (just the hotdog + bun) is the big fat one “Big BIte” at 7-11 . . . greasy good!
My perfect hot dog is the Sabretts from a stand with not toasted bun, those onions cooked in red (whatever that is) sauce, and YELLOW mustard.
Used to be a lady with a hot dog stand outside the WalMart in Doral (87th) who would be there like after 10PM til crazy hours. A hot dog with everything, but no dill pickle, no ketchup, no sauerkraut was the bomb! Pepitas, pineapple, etc. I think it was Columbian style. Haunted by these!

How come Costco didn’t make the list? :-p
There’s always next year!
